Definitely my favorite climbing gym of the dozen or so I've been toI'm a v4 climber with 1 year experience. These route setters are my favorite cause they hit the perfect balance of everything. There's a large variety of routes that are interesting, challenging, test different skills, safe, and above all fun.The gym is very clean, staff is awesome, there's a strong emphasis on safety.

Nice gym. Tons of space. Most of the easy routes (10- and below) are pretty basic jug hauls. They get better in the 11s range and up. Grades are a bit soft, even for a gym.

Tons of blouldering available, though I haven't done much. Overall a pretty decent gym, would recommend.
