Abstract: A safety mat securement assembly for providing an open and a closed position for a climbing wall assembly using a safety mat. The safety mat securement assembly may utilize a plurality of security hand hold members each having latching means and a safety mat having a plurality of bottom securement members, top and side loop members. The security hand hold members may be used as hand holds on the climbing wall assembly and may have a locking structure. The hand holds may also have embedded securement structures to provide for the attachment of climbing related devices. The bottom securement members function to hold the safety mat to the bottom of a climbing wall assembly during both open and closed positions of the safety mat. The mat securement assembly is opened or unlocked by loosening the latching means, removing security mat top loop members from the hand hold, and placing the mats on the floor along the base of the climbing wall.

Abstract: A climbing wall route setting assembly and process for setting climbing wall routes. The route setting assembly includes a guide with climbing wall maps having a coordinate system. Cooperating sets of hand hold structures are provided with indicia to create climbing routes of varying difficulty utilizing the route maps.

Abstract: A free standing climbing wall assembly having double mounted hand holds and a wall closure assembly. The wall closure assembly provides a covering to protect the climbing wall assembly and is secured in place to prevent unauthorized climbing. The protective covering may also be utilized to provide a tent-like shelter from the elements while providing access and use of the climbing wall.

Abstract: A climbing wall assembly having wall panels to form free-standing, wall-mounted or a combination climbing wall assembly. The climbing wall assembly further has novel handhold structures constructed to be used with removable elements to form a challenge course.
