Ascend Climbing Wall

Plan your visit

• Gear rental nearly every climbing gym rents shoes (~$5–8 typical) and chalk; harness rental is often bundled with a ropes pass
• Waiver always required at climbing gyms — sign it online before you go to skip the front-desk line
• First timer? bouldering needs zero experience — rent shoes and walk in; staff will point you at the easiest problems
• Yoga & fitness mentioned alongside the climbing — ask about the class schedule and what a pass includes
• Memberships available — worth asking about if you'd climb more than a few times a month
