The scenery was breathtaking, and the rappelling was genuinely thrilling -- scary in the best way, and a real confidence builder for the kids. Our guide Devin was fantastic -- especially when one of our kids got nervous. Devin stepped in with calm encouragement, and that kid ended up having a blast and walking away so proud of themselves. We felt safe the entire time. Highly recommended!

Moab was at the tail-end of our trip and we had just gone through a pretty taxing rental car issue when we arrived.. so needless to say we were seeking an escape. The town was really lovely, and we were looking forward to meeting with MDA for a climb up Looking Glass. We were introduced to Larry, the manager of operations and an accomplished adventure guide for the company. Larry was just a fantastic guy all around.. polite, funny, he kept us engaged through the whole experience, and even acted as tour guide for us so we could get a good sense of what Moab had to offer. Looking Glass itself was a phenomenal experience. I'm a first-time climber and my friend had some experience under her belt, but we are both in good shape and Larry briefed us on exactly what the demands were for the climb and what we were to expect. After a crash course in harnessing, belaying, and the ensuing climb, it didn't take us more than an hour to summit. Larry was a gem, helped us gather some great photos, and even took us along the scenic route back to show us different sites along the way. The experience was precisely what we were looking for, we wouldn't hesitate to book another tour with Larry again.

I had…read moreread about an easy 3-pitch bolted route (Regular Route) that tops out on the summit followed by an ~115 ft free hanging rappel. We were a bit thrashed from climbing Honeymoon Chimney the day prior in nasty winds and my climbing partner was sick, so this seemed like the perfect objective. The amphitheater/arch are quite spectacular and it's worth the short hike even if you don't want to climb. We were there on a Sunday and it wasn't a zoo like some areas in Arches. The arch is ~5 min from the parking lot. No water/bathrooms so plan ahead. DIRECTIONS The easiest way to get to the arch is to turn right on Looking Glass Road (23 miles from central Moab on Hwy 191 south). If you hit Wilson Arch you've gone too far. Once on Looking Glass Road the side road to Looking Glass Rock is signed. The road is passable with 2WD or low clearance vehicles.

I took a group of 12 gals on a 3 day canyoneering/rock climbing excursion with them. From start to finish this trip was fantastic. We booked our trip easily 5 months in advance. we had a large group and specific dates so had wanted to make sure we got the dates that we were looking for. There was not a lot of communication that happened until we got within a couple of weeks from the trip. Then Patrick, the manager of the moab portion contacted all of us via email. We had all of our questions answered promptly and thoroughly. The week before we each got a phone call from Dan the owner of the company, detailing things out for us and asking if we had any specific questions that had not yet been answered. we had been given a detailed packing list in advance. So everyone had everything that they needed and then some ;) Since we were coming in from colorado, they transported all of us via their van from golden to moab. Not having to put all the miles on our vehicles was nice. And just having us all arrive at the same time was great. No worries about where folks were. From the camping spot in moab, they unhooked the trailer and off we went on a adventure! The first day we did some rappelling at a famous arch in the area. Each group or persons expedition will look different. They do a lot of different activities with different folks. There was some hiking involved but it was all good. We did a small rappell. And then a larger rappell. 11 of the 12 had not rappelled before. They supplied all the needed gear. And they were also very patient with everyone in explaining and just helping folks to work through any fears. And answering questions. We hiked to another end of this hike and we were picked up and transported back to camp. The guides let us relax, change clothes whatever we needed to do, and they made the dinner for all of us. This was so appreciated. If you have special dietary needs, they accomodated my daughter and I well. I am gluten free vegan and she is gluten free vegetarian. We had one other person in the group who was dairy free. We were taken care of and had yummy food just like everyone else. This doesn't happen a lot. Many companies dont seem to be able to accomadate special needs, I was thankful and appreciative that they nailed it. And we were able to eat and enjoy. The guides also created a fire for us for that night. The next day we had a breakfast time given to us. They again were making breakfast. It was a hot breakfast, filled with lots of yummy stuff. We got out gear ready for the day and off we went. The next day we did some more rappelling and then some easy multi pitch climbing. This day was long but we got to do a lot of fun stuff. We had a lunch break at a park in between. You will need to bring your own lunch but definitely not a problem. When we were all done for the day, they brought us snacks and then made dinner for all of us again. They also created and tended to the fire for the 2nd night and provided smores and also gluten free treats. The next day was packing up. They had a traditional continental style breakfast. Coffee was always supplied as well for those that are coffee drinkers! They loaded all of our gear into the trailer and from there we went off to rock climb! This was so fun. Lots of varieties of difficulty on top rope lines. Fun was had by all! When our trip was over they drove us back to golden. From start to finish, every thing ran smoothly and was fantastic. Thank you front range climbing!! I will definitely be back with a group in the future! you guys are amazing! And just a note dont forget to tip your guides!

I'm surprised there are not more reviews of this place. It's a neat little climbing gym with some…read moresurprisingly tall climbing walls. Bouldering, top roping and lead climbing routes are all available here. There's also a fitness area upstairs. The locker room has a shower and lockers for storing valuables (cubbies are found next to the main climbing area). There's even a small store where you can purchase climbing gear. Pretty much you can find all the amenities you'd expect at a typical climbing gym. One big thing for me is the ventilation. Some gyms are horrible at it and you are pretty much breathing in a ton of chalk and dust while climbing. However, this gym seems to do a great job at ventilating the place! Then on second thought, I haven't been here on a busy day so I'm not the best judge of that. There are student, military and family discounts on the monthly passes so that's something to consider if you are thinking about signing up. The $16 daily pass is pretty pricey, but there's currently a deal for $8 passes on Wednesdays after 5pm. I think it is great that there's an indoor climbing gym in Grand Junction! Super friendly staff and chill vibes here. The only con is the pricing. It's quite expensive for a small gym... I'm from Seattle where indoor rock climbing was born so you can imagine the gyms there can be pretty big. That said, this gym is relatively small but the pricing is comparable to a much larger gym. Another thing to take into account is the cost of living in Grand Junction, which is much less than Seattle, so lowering the price can potentially bring in a lot more customers.

Just a massive disappointment; you can see clear as day the owner's, Fabrizio, use of narcissistic…read moreand manipulative business and management tactics are what give this gym not just the worst rating in Colorado but a stale, disgusting, and dangerous environment. HVAC filters 11 months out of date, a water fountain leaking constantly and COVERED internally in black mold. Holds that never get sanitized and bathrooms with years of biofilm building on the surfaces. Pads you can fall into but hit straight concrete, gym equipment that doesn't turn on, no yoga as advertised, no fitness as advertised (just a PT doing work for free that hasn't realized he's being manipulated yet, sorry Jesse) and as far as I can tell a supremely under-trained staff that doesn't know how to correctly fit a harness or respond to an event or know how to recognize belay behavior that needs correcting putting unsuspecting guests in harms way. And as a side note, if you work here you will be lied too, bait and switched about your position, hours, and expectations and then be immediately fired if you start to ask questions as to why things are the way they are. And Fabri, bud, you're a retailer...you shouldn't tell folks "we invented this thing, its called the internet, you should use it" when they ask if you have items you don't have for sale. It makes you look like a donkey's rear-end and absolutely removes any chance of that person ever spending money on the retail items you do feel like selling. Dude, what a schmuck.

She was hilarious, incredibly knowledgeable, and kept us laughing all day with river guide stories and jokes. One of our favorite parts was when Molly pointed out a Padlé Oarefish. We'd never even heard of one before! She explained they're unusually flat fish, most commonly yellow with blue, red, or pink accents, and they're surprisingly well camouflaged along the river. Such a cool thing to learn! She also showed us a rock formation that looked exactly like Winnie the Pooh wearing a beret and breathing fire. Once you see it, you can't unsee it! The wildlife was unbelievable. We saw bighorn sheep, three otters, geese, blue herons (mud flamingos), a baby deer, a fox catching a fish, and a huge eagle nest. Molly said we're officially her lucky group because they usually only see a couple of those animals, and she'd never seen the deer or the fox on a trip before. Lunch was fantastic too! The "conewiches" were surprisingly delicious. We were a little hesitant because we'd never tried Mediterranean food before, but the homemade Mediterranean salad with feta and kettle chips folded into a tortilla absolutely rocked. I'm still wishing I had Molly's recipe! If you're thinking about rafting in Moab, book the Fisher Towers trip with Red River Adventures. If you get Molly as your guide, consider yourself lucky. You'll leave with great memories, sore cheeks from laughing, and probably a newfound appreciation for the rare and majestic Padlé Oarefish. Oh, and I t's officially Hank's Bubble Bath in our book.
