Overview: Nice, large facility, tope rope and bouldering, corporate atmosphere…read more ---- Mesa Rim is one of the bigger climbing gyms in San Diego, offering both top roping and bouldering. They also have another location in Mission Valley. The front desk staff were polite and efficient, but the interactions felt a bit corporate rather than a genuinely warm welcome. Sign the waiver before you arrive to make things go faster! ---- There's a LOT of amenities here for climbing, fitness, and yoga. They even have a ping pong table and sauna! I really love their website where you can take a virtual tour of their gym, allows you to see the layout of their massive gym. - Strength training area near the front entrance has all the equipment that you'd expect from a full gym including both free weights and cable machines - The cardio area upstairs has treadmills, ellipticals, rowing machine - Ping Pong table located upstairs near the cardio area! ---- There are several different bouldering sections with a variety of routes. When it's busy, the cave bouldering section can be a bit crowded because of their small seating area there. The other sections seem to have enough space though. I would not reccomend this gym for beginners or first time climbers, a lot of the beginner routes are discouraging for true beginners. I came with some friends who were somewhat familiar to climbing and they were saying that the V0s are a bit tough to do. Besides the V0s, the grading is on par with Grotto. I haven't top roped here so I can't speak on that but the area seems to be quite large as well. ---- Something I really appreciate is that they offer free entry days and rentals for anyone a couple of times a year! - API celebration in May - Pride celebration in June Keep an eye out for these days on their upcoming events or their social media if you want to try out this gym or if you want to bring your friends for free! Day passes are $31 and monthly memberships are $110 (+ $100 intimation fee). They have other rates on their website for prepaid options and punch passes. A little thing that I also really like is that they have a suggestion box if you have anything you want to say. ---- Overall: Huge gym, amazing facilities and amenities, nice staff but didn't feel genuinely welcoming, look for the free entry and rental days to try this gym out

(see back muscle pics LOL) Haven't been to indoor rock climbing in a minute but this location is what got me started. This is one of the bigger climbing gyms in San Diego with tons of wall space for both top rope and bouldering. First timer or seasonal climber, you'll fit right in. The staff are awesome - helpful, motivating, and great at walking you through the basics. We opted for belaying lessons and I recommend that for first-timers! The front desk was polite and efficient but may be a bit corporate than warm. Tip: sign the waiver before you arrive. The gym is clean, routes are reset often, and there's a slab wall full gym, sauna plus a small shop with gear and snacks. They also have a Mission Valley location closer to my work! Tempted to check that one out! Overall: 4 stars - solid climbing, great workouts, even yoga, and good vibes. I'd recommend a membership if you really want to commit. They have several options on their website. HSA/FSA eligible too! Great for a group event and birthday outing in my opinion! Just be ready to get humbled (and sore).

Mama Bear Vent... I…read morewas looking into summer camp for my boys. I called Outpost thinking an outdoor camp would be fun for them. I spoke to Sam (4/11/2024) and inquired about inclusion programs and what supports they had for autistic children. Here's how that went: Oh, I'm sorry, we don't have inclusion programs. If your child is autistic, they just won't fit in with us. We don't offer aides. If your child cannot follow instructions, they won't do well. I get it - it may be hard for the kids to follow instructions. Ok, what if I hire an aide for them? No - we've had aides in the past and they just get in the way of the child learning and it makes them stand out too much. In 19 years of parenting 3 children on the spectrum, have I EVER come across someone who would talk to parents and about kids like this. This is NOT a summer camp that requires skills. Hiking, forts, mud and exploration are our foundational principles is what is says on their website. Funny that they would say: *It is important to us to be inclusive. We invite our non-binary and transgender campers to select whichever program would fit them best - Day Camp Girls or Day Camp Boys. To each their own, but I would STAY AWAY FROM THEM.

We had an urge to go bowling so we decided to ask some friends to tag along on a Sunday night near…read more8pm. It was fairly busy but we were still able to get a lane! - PARKING - Large parking lot, not an issue getting a spot here. - SERVICE/ENVIRONMENT - You check in at the front and let the staff know how many hours you'd like to book. It's $50/hr on the weekends and $35 on the weekdays. $6 for shoe rentals! The lanes themselves are pretty small - there were only 3 seats plus the center seat, so if you weren't taking up two lanes with your group, you had to share the area. Bowling balls are everywhere so you might have to look for the correct weight that works for you. - EXPERIENCE - The system seems a little older, and sometimes was hard to figure out. The lanes were also a bit slow to reload the pins at times. Because of some of these delays, we were just shy of finishing our second game, so our friend asked if we could just get an extra 10 minutes and luckily he was nice enough and added time. We also ordered a pitcher of beer and it seemed like a decent price. - OVERALL - A fun casual activity to spend time with friends or for a date night out!

It seems like finding a bowling alley is a rarity these days so it's nice to see there is this…read morelocation in Mira Mesa. It's in the large shopping complex in Mira Mesa but in the back. The bowling alley is large with 44 lanes however it was quite busy on the weekend and full. They only take reservations if you reserve a minimum of 2 lanes for at least 1.5 hours. Otherwise it's first come first serve. Note certain days they have very limited lanes due to leagues playing so you may want to call in advance about availability. In addition to bowling, they have a small arcade section, bar area, and food service. Prices are $35/hr per lane Monday to Thursday and $50/hr per lane Friday to Sunday and holidays. $6 per shoe rental. A bit pricey for a family outing but I guess if you split costs with friends it's more reasonable. Note there is limited seating around the lanes, only 3 seats per lane. It can be tricky to find the right ball size as well when busy. Ample parking in the lot and street. Overall a nice activity to consider when going out but for the price probably not on a regular basis.
