From the reviews
Top rope routes are better suited for intermediate and advanced climbers. Would like to see 5.7 top rope options. I enjoyed the variety of climbs with flat and inclined walls. Auto belay is great! Great staff and climbing spot! Will come again!
Not perfect but near and dear to my heart. The staff are great and being a member there introduced me to most of my best friends. Come climb with us! And don’t feel bad if things seem tough for the grade, that’s just how they roll.
Really nice staff and safe equipment. The top rope routes were set/graded pretty tough compared to other areas I’ve climbed, but it’s still a fun experience.
The staff was very helpful and friendly and the actual climbing was fun and challenging. Our group had a blast!
