Frequently Asked Stuff

Here's what people usually wanna know before their first visit

Nah, not at all! We've got routes for everyone from total newbies to comp climbers. First-timers get a quick orientation that covers safety basics and how to read our grading system. Most people hop on a V0 or V1 and figure it out pretty quick - bouldering's surprisingly intuitive once you try it.

Just comfortable athletic clothes and a water bottle. We've got rental shoes, chalk, and everything else you'll need. Some folks bring their own climbing shoes once they get hooked, but rentals work fine when you're starting out. Oh, and maybe bring a friend - climbing's way more fun with someone to cheer you on!

Day passes start at $22, and if you're gonna come regularly, memberships are the way to go. We've got monthly unlimited options, punch cards, and student discounts. Honestly, just give us a call or stop by - we'll help you figure out what makes sense for how often you wanna climb.

You can totally just walk in during open hours - no reservation needed for general climbing. We only ask people to book ahead for coaching sessions, youth programs, or if they're bringing a big group. Weekday mornings and early afternoons are usually quieter if you're not into crowds.

Kids under 14 need to have an adult with them, but otherwise we're all ages. We run specific youth programs for the younger climbers where they learn technique and make friends with other kids who climb. Honestly some of our best climbers are teenagers who absolutely shred the walls!

Still Got Questions?
