I've been to North Mass Boulder a few times now and always have a great time! I'm definitely not a…read moreclimber, but it's fun seeing how far I can get on different routes and watching people who are actually skilled enough to do the inverted walls. Everyone there has been super welcoming, and I've never once felt out of place as a non-climber. The cafe upstairs is also really solid. It's a nice spot to sit, relax, and let your hands recover between climbs. Prices seem fair across the board, and the staff has always been friendly and helpful. It's just a really fun place to spend a couple hours!

My kids loved this spot for indoor rock climbing! And I was pleased to see that there's so many…read moreother activities to do: a gym, a merch shop, and even a cafe! I was watching my little ones so I didn't get to explore all the other items but I'd go back to!

First, the price. It's only $20 for an all-day pass, with shoes and equipment included ($15 if you…read morebring your own stuff)! That's hard to beat. Second, the service. The guy who helped us and showed my son and his friends how to do auto-belay climbing was so chill and friendly and just a great overall human being. He made the experience so fun for my group of teens. I'm going to stop numbering now, and just talk about Climb Time. It's one of the smaller rock climbing gyms in the area, but it's my teen son's favorite, and he specifically wanted to come here for his birthday, because it's a little more challenging than some of the other rock climbing gyms. There's also a bouldering wall, which he loves. When you walk in, it feels very no-frills: Anyone who comes here really wants to climb. We stayed three hours (which was plenty for teen boys) and it was never crowded, but there were always one or two other people there who looked like they knew what they were doing. They came in, they climbed, and they left. Like I said, this is the place to climb if you love to climb and want a nice, no nonsense experience. I did not climb, but instead posted up on the lobby couch. They offer free wifi here, and I took advantage of that to get a little work done while the kids climbed. There's a small concession area with snack foods like granola bars, protein bars, chips, trail mix, beef sticks, string cheese and treats like M&Ms, Starbursts and cotton candy. There is also cold water for $1, and Monster Energy and Red Bull and protein drinks for $3. There isn't much else in terms of food, though.

Had a great first-time experience at Climb Time today! First, the staff was very welcoming and took…read morethe time to have a helpful learning session before we started. Secondly, you just can't beat the prices that this climbing gym offers. Thirdly, everyone climbing there was very nice and helpful as we learned belaying.

I was under the impression that the Skip + Alex Lange Innovation Center was for Boy Scouts and Girl…read moreScouts only, but no, it's open to the public! On Saturdays, day passes are available to the public, which are $20 and allow you in-and-out access all day. This center is located on the grounds of Camp Belzer, tucked near Ft. Harrison State Park in Lawrence. You'll find lots of fun, family-friendly activities for all ages, including a ropes course, rock climbing and bouldering walls, indoor archery, a makerspace, robotics and technology, and lots more. The ropes course (SkyTrail Air Adventure Course) has 10 different obstacles all connected and suspended 9 feet in the air. Kids must be at least 42 inches tall to go on the course with an adult, and 48 inches or taller to go on the course alone. The ropes course is only open on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. Lange has two rock climbing walls. The main rock climbing wall features seven lanes for climbing, each lane with four paths to the top that increase in difficulty. The north tower rock wall, with three lanes and three options to get to the top, offers a view out into the camp from the windows. They also have a bouldering wall and bouldering cave. The bouldering cave allows kids to climb around and practice different rock climbing holds freely, but each climber must wear a helmet. Assistants stand by, ready to catch or help each kid. There's also a makerspace room, where kids can learn about and try out different technology, including robots and drones. Here, you can fly drones or make robots move on command using a tablet, make robots move along a path using special markers, and lots more. The room also includes space to try out 3D printing and laser-cutting, tinker with toys, and get hands on while learning about technology and science. Some of the activities change out weekly, and that includes some of the sports. When we visited, they had an indoor badminton court set up, but the week before, that area was designated for indoor archery. There was also a basketball shooting area, cornhole and velcro darts. Drop-ins are welcome at Lange Innovation Center, but the center can also be rented for groups, such as Scouts, clubs and schools. So, calling ahead and reserving a time is highly recommended.
