Excellent routesetting Even with a limited bouldering space they use every inch they can with high quality boulders at a high volume

Inconsistent policy where 90% of the time they don’t charge for shoes for members while the rest it’s like 7 dollars which isn’t much but I never carry money on me so I feel like I have to turn around and go back home. 😢

Climbing, fitness. Great programs for kids. Allows parents to workout while waiting. Wish they had a smoothie/cafe as well !

Overall, the climbing gym is very nice and well organized. The climbers there are usually very friendly. The staff, however, seemed a bit unusual, they didn’t seem to be very nice, appeared quite stressed, and made some odd comments about our shoe sizes.
