I went here with some coworkers to try bouldering for the first time. I came with a member, so it was free for my first visit. They even gave us the shoe rental too. Very nice staff at the front desk to help us register. The gym felt clean, and there was a good variety of climbing levels to try. We had a great time and stayed for a couple hours. read more

Super dope gym and all the staff is super friendly!! The route setters do a good job with the grading as well. The gym is 2 stories and has all sorts of gear as well. Love this place! read more

LA Boulders - Inside - Rock Climbing Near Me - Los Angeles, California

We have been checking out all the Touchstone locations with our membership! LA Boulders was the most crowded of the ones we've been to. I don't recommend coming with kids and it's definitely not ideal for anyone who doesn't like crowded spaces. This location is bouldering only. That said, LA Boulders did have a lot of interesting routes that were fun to work with. I would like to come back without having my kids to worry about. This location is next to an indoor shooting range, which you can actually kind of hear from the yoga studio, but it's not too bad to be bothersome. The parking lot is limited and challenging, so coming before opening is the best time to secure a spot. read more

This was my first experience at a bouldering gym, and it was a fantastic one! Everyone (not just the staff, but the members too) is friendly and welcoming. I felt right at home trying V0, V1 and V2 routes and fumbling the bag on the V3 and V4 ones. There is liquid chalk and other minor things that you can use in the front desk. You can also rent special bouldering shoes from them and they even have day passes for someone who may not want to commit to a monthly membership. Will definitely be back. read more

Hear me out. I love climbing and for the most part I love all the touchstone climbing facilities in LA, but the cost keeps going up and quite honestly I think the one benefit that could change is the member intro pass. I'd love to bring a friend that can't afford the climbing more than just free Friday or a friend who visits in town to come climb with me but I can't because they already visited a gym before! read more

The price is $100 for a membership a month and parking is packed but none the less this place has everything and it's a forsure get away from home! They have a gym, and rock climbing with lounging and a yoga room. Lucky to get a park right in front. Overall it was enjoyable but there are little clicks there lol and the rocks are hard to climb! They should make it more easier to climb! For ppl who don't wanna be challenged too hard but have fun. Overall good place to go on a first date. read more

The staff here are very friendly! There's been times I've accidentally left something and if you call or ask them, they'll mark the item and set it aside for you. I can trust that my item won't get stolen. The climbing community is so nice! If you buy something from their store and you forgot your wallet, don't worry about it - they can charge directly to your membership next time you pay. I love that there's a variety of grades and problems that change every couple of weeks. LA Boulders doesn't offer rope climbing like some of the other Touchstone gyms, but it offers the same facilities like gym equipment (weights and cardio) and classes all week long. read more

I'm a newbie but this gym was perfect. Went on a weekday, parking was ok but gets hard to find in the evening/late afternoon. Staff were nice, the ebt discount is absolutely amazing. The place was very clean, not much chalk powder on the ground. There is plenty of cubbies for personal items. Even showers upstairs! read more

the slab wall is awesome. Way bigger slab wall than any other touchstone gym in socal. very cool gym layout as well.

LA.B is my favorite bouldering gym. There are so many routes to choose from for all levels, plus a wonderful sense of community. The staff is always accommodating and super friendly as well. In terms of other amenities, they have a weight training area, cardio level, and a space to take various fitness classes (like yoga). If you want to up your climbing game, they have beginner and intermediate classes available or you can book private lessons if that's more your style. Logistically, the parking can get a little tight in the lot, which is why I prefer to come when they open. Their establishment is also always clean, which is nice. Overall, I LOVE LA.B and would recommend this place to climbers of all skills levels everywhere. read more

Since my review...years ago, I've become a Touchstone member and LA.B has become my second home. Since then, this gym has up'd their game in not just bouldering, but in fitness classes as well. LA.B facilities are not as advanced as So Cal Touchstone's other bouldering gyms (Hollywood Boulders and Cliffs of Id) as they don't have designated training rooms, top rope area, saunas, and more. However, the place is intimate and has the friendliest people! They've recently given their yoga room upstairs a little makeover as well! This room is used for classes such as TRX training, Acro-Yoga, Thai and Fly (Thai massage), Muy Thai and Yoga Anusara. It's enclosed so people aren't as distracted. The upstairs workout area, which has a Stair Master, two row machines, ellipticals, and treadmills occasionally serves as a workout area for classes such as Kettle Bell training, Sweat and Shred, and Buns and Guns, and more. Anyone new to bouldering who is serious about improving and making this a regular activity should consider the bouldering technique classes that LA.B offers as well. Most classes and fitness classes are free (or at a small fee) for members. Guests of the gym pay a fee to attend the classes. Day pass prices for bouldering: -$25 for weekdays after 3pm, and weekends. -$20 for weekdays before 3pm, except holidays -$20 for kids under 12 -$4 for shoe rentals -$1 for chalk There are packages that they offer as well, like a 10-pack or special summer packs, so call ahead to find out! read more

Very friendly staff and atmosphere! First time here w a friend and took the $35 class wc includes day pass and rental shoes and chalk bag. They have dedicated parking although we parked in the area and walked it. The ambiance was very inviting and folx of diverse backgrounds we're enjoying themselves and being respectful throughout. Would love to come again and climb w my partner! :-) We wore our face masks the whole time and it was mixed among the crowed who was covered, however, we did not feel unsafe as it was very spacious w high ceilings and folks kept their distance also out of climbing etiquette. read more

Love this gym. People are nice and the gym is always clean. Only thing that sucks is their parking. Must do's: yoga at 5:30 definitely make you detox and the instructor is very helpful. read more

This is one of my favorite places to climb. The facilities are always very clean. The staff is always friendly and accommodating. And they are over 200 different route that you could possibly take to challenge yourself. Parking is sometimes a challenge. I try to come on the ofttimes. The entrance is on factory Place. Signed the waiver and come have fun!! read more

Just called to ask if proof of vaccination is still required, and they hung up on me. Called right back and they guy says "Yes we do. I don't know what you're trying to get out of this." And hangs up again. First of all, I am not against vaccinations. I am vaccinated but my climbing partner is not. Two pieces of information that never came up in our brief conversation. I am however opposed to mandatory vaccinations. I would love to join your gym, especially since your new location in Pasadena is a few blocks my home. But I have a difficult time supporting a business that forces it's members to be vaccinated. After today's interaction with your employee, it's a much easier decision for me. I would never join a gym with an employee who's attitude is the antithesis of the inclusive vibe the climbing community is known for. Perhaps he's having a bad day because he's tired of people asking this question. Maybe that something you should take a look at. Furthermore, when I have climbed at your facility in the past, the routes are meh, and half the people there are just laying in the mats the whole time. It's more of a fashion show than a climbing scene. Fine if that's what you're into, but with membership fees about double what some of the other gyms are, I'd rather get as much climbing in as possible. LAB is big and beautiful inside, but I'm looking for routes, not space. read more

Initiating..... BEAST MODE! If you love bouldering then this is THE indoor climbing gym for you! I've been here twice now and I must say it is not only LA's only bouldering gym but it is also one of the nicest in the area. The facility is super clean and well maintained. There are around 200 different bouldering routes and they vary from all levels so even if you are a beginner there's pretty challenging routes for you as well (this is something I find lacking in other gyms). Amenities include locker rooms with showers, lockers, towels, and a whole fitness area upstairs as well. The day passes are $20 after 3PM and $15 before 3PM on weekdays only. Membership prices and punch passes prices are available on their website. There's a waiver that you have to fill out but it takes not more than 5 minutes and you can also sign this waiver online prior to your visit. https://touchstoneclimbing.com/la-boulders/ Tip* Parking is really difficult so come during off hours and the main entrance is on Factory Pl. read more

I was SO SORE BUT IT WAS SO MUCH FUN!!! :D It was my first time and honestly -1 because the staff were of no help what-so-ever and the guy next to me felt bad for me I guess because he ended up teaching me everything to what the stickers on the walls meant, how to get up, what and where to go for easier ones, and how to come down. Thank you friendly guy that doesn't even get paid to sit at the front desk and and do nothing :) Although it really frustrated me that the staff automatically though we'd know what we were doing I had the time of my life. Yes, it was hard but it was totally worth the work out and I'm so excited to go back and try harder levels. For the day pass you sign a waiver through the Ipad when you enter and it's $20 per person for the whole day. You can rent shoes for $4 which I didn't but later regret not doing so, I heard it's so much easier with the shoes. The place was clean and very spacious. Considering that they weren't open for too long I'm crossing my fingers this place won't get too packed .... but surely it will soon happen :( I'd come back and there's a cardio station upstairs and weights down stairs and ... the upstairs bathrooms are so much cleaner and they have lotion (shh it's a secret) hahaa :D read more

Price: $25 for day pass, $4 for shoe rentals and $1 for chalk bag. Came here on the weekend to boulder and there were not that many people. This facility is all bouldering so if you want to belay, this is not for you. They have different levels that you could choose, V0 being the easiest and gets progressively harder as the numbers go up. If this is your first time, V0-2/3 would be your best bet. Anything else would require more technique. They offer a small area with weights to workout on the bottom floor and cardio machines on the second floor. Everything is clean and well kept. I feel that the pricing is a bit high but it is totally worth it. Lots of different areas for you to climb and you could spend a whole day here assuming you have the stamina and your hands are not raw after the first hour. Remember to chalk up and use your legs when to climb otherwise you will skin your hands like me... For parking, they offer a couple spaces in the back shared by LA Gun Club. Otherwise you could park next door which has a sign that says $4 parking (not sure for how long). If you don't mind walking two blocks, you could park on Mateo since there is usually parking. read more

This place is awesome! Unfortunately the parking sucks! It is shared with the Gunclub next door. Somehow my friend scored a spot right in front though! When you walk in you are greeted by Ipads to sign waivers. After your done with it you approach the front desk and the staff take care of you from there on. The price to climb was $20 for the whole day, and $4 for shoes. We opt to not get the shoes first and try it with our Nike frees. Bad idea! Ahah. It was our 2nd time climbing and we didn't have much experience so they suggested us to hop in with the class that was being taught! In the class they teach you how to fall which is SUPER important cause you can break limbs! After learning the basics me and my friends were off, the place was huge! Enough for the amount of people on a Saturday to climb while waiting briefly for others to finish. I like this place because of the holds are color coordinated making it much easier to locate the next hold to move onto. After climbing for about a hour my hands were shot. But somehow me and my friends continued to go for about 3 more hours. The key is to definitely use your legs to help you move onto the next hold or else you'll burn all your energy! Definitely get some chalk or else you'll be ripping skin, cause thats what happened to me! The staff has bandaids up at the desk, because they know people like me will injury themselves! Rock climbing shoes are TERRIBLY UNCOMFORTABLE! I exchanged them like times, your toes are suppose to be curled!! I had to take them off a few times to relieve my toes, but it is HIGHLY recommend you get them! I would definitely come again, once my hands/arms recover.. read more

LA Boulders - Prices as of 4/23/16 - Rock Climbing Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I'm more meh on this place because I found the walls less interesting than at Hollywood Boulders or Cliffs of ID. Actually, Verdigo walls are also kind of meh (all fairly similar in height) but I get the impression Verdigo is a much easier parking situation compared to LA Boulders. The plus for LA Boulders is that there's cool restaurants nearby for a post-climb eat! I hate the cardio/weight layout, it's cramped and you're kind of up in everyone's business. read more

Think you've got what it takes to conquer the routes because you go to the gym regularly and are in decent shape? Well put that pride away and think again! I didn't realize it initially since it was my first time bouldering, but I soon accepted that my strength was not going to be a trump card for routes beyond V3. You have to practice and master good technique and finesse to finish the harder routes. Pace yourself and take breaks because you will tire yourself out quickly in less than 2 hours if you attempt climb after climb. This facility has something for people of all skill levels and interests. Not only are there bootcamp and yoga classes, they also have a strength training area complete with weights. Though they do not have roped climbing, they do have about 200 bouldering routes. These routes are all color coordinated with grips of all sizes and shapes. The floor is well-padded so falls for beginners like myself did not seem so bad. You should consider practicing proper landing/falling techniques that are taught in the introductory class that I did not have a chance to take. Pricing has naturally gone up over the years. It is now $25 for weekdays after 3pm and weekends and $20 for weekdays before 3pm. Members are able to bring a friend for free through a guest pass on the 4th Friday of every month. Parking is probably the only sore spot. When you give up on looking for parking on the small lot shared with the shooting range next door, you'll find a space somewhere eventually on the street. Just be mindful of what the street signs say! read more

LA Boulders - Rock Climbing Near Me - Los Angeles, California

From atop the 17-foot high walls at LA Boulders, a bouldering-only gym with several locations scattered around the LA area, you'll feel like you can do anything! That is, of course, unless you're afraid of heights and too terrified to shimmy your way down the well-marked exit route. Either way, LA Boulders is definitely worth checking out if you've been meaning to cross bouldering off your bucket list or just looking to kill a few hours with some good ol' exercise. I had the opportunity to visit this plastic playground thanks to a friend with a guest pass, which is typically available to existing members on the fourth Friday of every month. Even with the extra crowds taking advantage of the fourth Friday free promotion, it wasn't too difficult to stake out a spot. The gym is large, well padded, and accessible to people of all skill levels, and there are small cardio and strength training areas if you're sticking to a more traditional fitness routine. The bouldering routes are rated V0 to V12+ and are color-coded for simplicity. As a bouldering newbie, I was proud of myself for successfully navigating several V2 routes. But, I quickly became aware of the skill and thought required to make it up some of the more difficult routes, especially the ones with inverted inclines or tiny grips. If you don't have a membership, there are several options for visitors. The day pass costs $25 (weekends and weekdays after 3PM) or $20 (weekdays before 3PM) and gives you access to a "free" (i.e. included in the price) intro to bouldering class. If you don't have an experienced friend to guide you, then it's probably worthwhile to take the class since proper falling techniques are important when you accidentally slip or lose your grip. It's an additional $4 to rent bouldering shoes and $1 for a chalk bag to keep your hands dry. You can get your money's worth if you spend a good chunk of time, but keep in mind that your arms will get tired after a few hours of intermittently scrambling up the walls. Store your belongings in the locker room (upstairs) or one of the cubbies adjacent to the main area. While there are several parking spaces reserved for LAB directly in front of the building, you'll likely have to find street parking, which may or may not be difficult on the day and time you find yourself here. It might seem sketchy if you're unfamiliar with this area of DTLA, but the area is rapidly gentrifying (for better or for worse). I probably won't be testing my newfound bouldering skills outside anytime soon, but I'd definitely come back to LA Boulders soon! read more

TIPS - parking is pretty hard so try to go at odd hours when the gym won't be too busy (early morning - early afternoon) Out of all the Touchstone climbing gyms, this will always be my home gym! This is the first climbing gym I went to and the intro lesson I got was super useful and my instructor was very helpful and friendly! I have now been a Touchstone member for about four months and I am not turning back! Like all the other Touchstone gyms, LA Boulders also has classes, cardio machines and a weight area for gym goers to use! Out of all the LA Touchstone gyms I have been to (LA Boulders, Hollywood Boulders and Cliffs of Id) I find the bouldering walls at LA Boulders to be my favorite! They have such a huge slab section and no other gym has anything that compares to it. I also think the staff plays the best music out of all the other gyms! I highly recommend checking this gym out! Bring your friends, bring your family, bring everyone!! read more

I have been going to LA Boulders for two weeks now and all I can say is that this place is great. The workout you get is amazing and definitely puts your mind and body to work. Everybody who goes there is super friendly, the atmosphere is great and everyone is willing to teach you a thing or two. The staff is also amazing but the person who's helped me out both times has been Melo, she's great by the way. Super friendly and super helpful. Great character and nice vibrant energy. read more

Love coming here. Super affordable. Love the vibes and the people here are super friendly and welcoming!

Love it! Favorite touchstone gym in all of LA. I think the biggest strength here compared to the others is accessibility and space. Hollywood boulders feels much larger and nicer to beginner climbers like me (VB - V3) read more

I wanted to try climbing and LAB was near my location. The initiation class wasn't available but the told me, if I'm confortable, I may not need a class. So my boyfriend and I have bought the Day-Pass and started to practice progressively from the easiest level. It was really fun and we didn't noticed the time flying, but our arm muscles did Whereas the place was good, the staff members weren't friendly, almost rude. read more

Clean facility, friendly staff and FREE PARKING IN LA! What more could you ask for? My friend first introduced me to this place when I was looking for something "outdoorsy" to do. Although its all indoor bouldering i decided to come and check it out anyways. When I arrived I was greeted by big smiles and friendly faces. I was directed to a waiver that I had to sign where I forfeited my right to sue them in the event I die...or get injured. When we finished everything and I paid I walked over to their cubby area and gym area. This place is HUGE. Its got a fully stocked gym with a squat rack, pull up bar and barbels. Anything you could think of this place has got. Upstairs they even have lockers and a cardio room. On top of the wall theres a little rest area and yoga studio space for those who enjoy yoga. They have varying difficulties of boulders to climb and its great. I have been back here a few times now with many different people and we enjoy ourselves every time. This is a great place to hang out and have fun! read more

I've been to LA Boulders twice now and while it's definitely one of the more fun activities you can do with your clothes on that doesn't require booze, it's positively one of the most frustrating! Bouldering is not for the easily discouraged. It will break you down faster than a drill sergeant. I consider myself pretty athletic and up for most anything fitness wise, but this is one activity that I just can't figure out. The facility is great, a ton of different courses and a ton of a different routes (varying in difficulty) for each level. As a beginner, there's actually quite a variety of routes to take a stab at, though that doesn't make them any easier to climb! The staff is nice, just make sure to tell them it's your first time and they'll set you up with all the particulars. Definitely opt for renting the shoes. This last time I used my sneakers and I wasn't able to get as good of a grip on the wall as with the rentals. It is brutal on your hands at first and your arms will be sore the next couple of days, but if you stick with it, your most important limbs will adapt. On my most recent visit, I was treated to a bootcamp, courtesy of Darian (offered sporadically throughout the week and is complimentary). She took us through a CrossFit like routine, mixed with stretching, a warmup, and some climbing. I was ecstatic to tack on a workout that my body was good at to the day's festivities, as well as the bouldering. She also took the time to show us how to properly boulder, which made the act even that more tough, but it was awesome to understand the wall a little better and the most efficient way to get up it! A great alternative to hiking when the weather is temperamental or a group activity when you've exhausted all the watering holes in your neighborhood! read more

I just wish the employees were a little more friendly and forth coming with instructions. I paid and I was abandoned lol I had to ask about everything. I felt like I was annoying them. In the end it was fine, but I felt like a general overview would have been nice. I liked the set up I just wished there was more easier levels cause they were super hard. Definitely not a lot for beginners. There's like one or two places to go up and come down for beginners. So I used them to safely go down, but people there are nice and will help you out. Chill spot, but my forearms hurt now. read more

Never had so much fun working out. My arms literately gave out on me after 90 minutes. Then I was told that the secret was to use my legs more. It's super easy to get started. The level 1 and 2s are simple. Get's you warmed up for the harder stuff. It's super addicting and such a great work out for my core and arms. My friend Sam and I were messing around with the tight ropes they have near the lockers(got kinda ridiculous, I couldn't stop laughing, who knew it was so hard to balance). They offer pretty much have all your typical gym amenities as well as shoe rental for bouldering. Without looking at membership prices, the day pass is only 20 bucks. I was like pffft -that's nothing. "Shut up and take my money!" Until you realize how much you can save by getting a membership. If I lived closer I'd definitely have an annual membership or something. The rates aren't bad at all. read more

LA Boulders - This was harder than I thought. Definitely more technique involved than strength. #beastmode won't help you here. - Rock Climbing Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Best bouldering gym I've ever been too!! This place has so many great things about it, I don't know where to start! Guess the only place to start was right when my friend and I walked in.We could just feel the AC as the coolness hit our faces as we walked in from hot LA. That was a plus since most bouldering gyms that I've been to just keep their doors open. The people working in the front were very friendly and funny. This place I felt was a little expensive though. I paid $24 for a day pass including shoes on a Saturday. As I explored the gym, I understood why. This place was HUGE with so many problems for each type of person whether they were a beginner or expert. If you climb all the way to the top of the problem to the platform, there are couches to hang out which I thought was pretty cool. Machines and weights are also provided at this gym which was very convenient. This place really knows how to break a sweat. Luckily!!..they provide clean towels so you can take a shower which includes it's own body gel, shampoo, and conditioner. While you shower you could put your belongings in the lockers only a few feet away. The showers and bathrooms were so clean and it even provided a blow dryer and lotion. This place seriously knows how to take good care of their customers. I'm so excited to take my boyfriend here on a surprise date very soon. This place deserves nothing but the full five stars! If you love bouldering, this might become your new favorite place. read more

My favorite bouldering gym that I've been to so far. Lots of different walls, made for all levels -- and everyone in here is super friendly, not just the staff but the clientele. This is the only bouldering place I would consider going to on my own, and of course hope to meet new people... But yes I love this place! There's no rock climbing, it's 100% bouldering, but there are treadmills and a locker room, and also classes. It's a nice place to start a bouldering family! read more

LA Boulders is my new playground. At first, the thought of bouldering made me a bit wary (falling from tall heights and all that jazz), but once I got there, it was easy to get a hang of it and have a great time. $20 entry fee + $4 for shoe rentals and I was all set. If you are a first-timer like me, I would recommend buying tape for $1 in order to protect your fingers. Also don't wear shorts! The walls are sandpaper-like and it's not hard to get scraped. Don't worry about where to put your belongings, LA.B has you covered: give them your ID and you receive a lock to use on one of the plentiful lockers located in the upstairs restrooms. Also upstairs is a cardio area with treadmills and other miscellaneous weight machines downstairs. On top of the rock area there's a room for yoga classes and even a couple couches with Jenga for you to play. A challenging workout -- I went two days ago and my arms are still sore -- and a fun way to spend your time. You can sense a sort of community as people cheer one another on and more advanced climbers freely give tips and guidance. read more

LA Boulders - It's bouldering time - Rock Climbing Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Love LAB. It's about a 2 min walk from my condo, it's like having a climbing gym in my building. It has a huge variety of routes, beginner to expert- and they add new routes weekly. They also have a ton of free(for members) classes and Instructional courses and a full gym with weight & cardio machines. I wish they had a couple top rope problems, but as a member, you can use any touch-stone facility. read more

LA Boulders - Climbing competition at LAB - Rock Climbing Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Fun routes, as others reviews have mentioned it feels like a playground! Strangers are friendly and even give helpful input on how they were able to complete routes. I really appreciate some of the creativity of routes and the thought put into placement. Bouldering is so addicting because it's not your typical gym with a boring workout, it's a mental puzzle as well! The variety of routes are fantastic, from routes people with zero bouldering experience can do or people who have been climbing for years can still find a challenge. There is also weekend beginner classes you can take with a guided tour around. The only downside is the parking situation. Since it shares a lot with LA Gun Club it's tiny and often on weekends you will often find yourself scoping out sketchy street parking. Carpool please and bring the most compact car you own please. read more

My friend SZ had this phase where she was really into bouldering and had a membership here, so she brought me here once to use her free guest pass. They have a somewhat small parking lot but we were able to snag the last open parking spot. Since it was my first time here I had to sign a waiver on one of their iPads (so high tech!) and I rented shoes from the guy at the counter. They have lockers upstairs next to the restrooms so we put our stuff in there and came back down to boulder. I have a fear of heights so this was scary... especially since I have no hand/upper body strength and so I was constantly afraid of falling. The floor is like an inflated mattress so it is okay to fall... but who wants to fall?! I managed to climb up two walls following the very basic route (they have different difficulty levels, all marked out)--it was scary and exhilarating! It was scary climbing up... but even scarier climbing back down :P This gym is not for climbing only though--they also have weights and cardio machines (upstairs). So after we did the bouldering we went and used the weights for a bit before using the ellipticals upstairs. Overall the gym is pretty clean and nice to use. If I lived nearby, I might consider joining this gym since I did have fun while I was here, but since I am not in this neighbourhood I will stick to the occasional visit. read more

LA Boulders - View from up top - Rock Climbing Near Me - Los Angeles, California

A new bouldering gym in LA! Went to check it out with some friends on a Sunday afternoon. First, this place is located in a dead end and parking is limited so good luck on that. We had to walk a bit since we couldn't find parking right near the gym. It's a pretty sketchy area too so I'd recommend maybe going early if you're not familiar with the area. Entered the gym and it's a decent size. Their waivers are all electronic (you just fill out the form on their iPad) and a day pass is $20 (pretty steep, but its LA and it's new) So if you're a beginner (like me, this was my 3rd time climbing ever) .. this place might be a bit too overwhelming ... granted you can definitely have fun trying to figure out the V0's because that's the lowest they go in this gym. It was a challenge for me, but I loved watching all the experienced people climb and I was able to get half way on some of the V0's. There were a lot of people so you have to share the wall. They closed at 6pm too, not sure if that's their usual Sunday time or not. Overall, this gym was definitely awesome. I love how clean it was, everything was new...the problems were very challenging and the people that go here definitely know how to climb and you can learn a lot from them. The walls are high and the floors are heavily padded (thank goodness). Only reason I gave 4 stars was that their staff wasn't as friendly as other gyms that I've been too (and that could be because so many people go that it's kinda hard to mingle) and the fact that there's so many people it can get kind of intimidating. Otherwise, if you live in the area.... this gym is def. the place to go for bouldering! read more

Seriously one of the best bouldering gyms I've been to! It's $20 for a day pass and totally worth it. The gym is HUGE! They have tons of V0s and V1s for beginners and even mark out the ones that are best for people who are just new to climbing. They have really fun and reasonable climbs and a huge variety of them too. You can top out here at the gym and walk all the way around the gym and climb back down on the other side. The sick thing is they have a yoga studio at one of the corners where you can top out. They also have cardio machines like treadmills upstairs as well as free weights for you to use downstairs. Definitely one of the most comprehensive climbing gyms I've been to and would def come back. Good date place! read more
