While service animals are welcome within the building, we ask they not be on the climbing area floor. Emotional support animals do not qualify as service animals. Pets are not permitted within the building.
While working, the service animal’s behavior must be under the control of its owner. A service animal should not pose a direct threat to the health or safety of others. If your animal is out of control and you do not take effective action to control your animal or your animal poses a direct threat to the health and safety of others, you can be asked to remove your animal from the premises. You are also responsible for the care or supervision of your service animal including care, food, and cleaning if the animal urinates or eliminates within the facility, as well as identification of appropriate locations for animal use.
We have bouldering (including a cave and Kilter Board), 13 Auto-Belays, 29 Top Ropes, and 17-20 Lead Climbing lanes (depending on how lead routes may traverse over to utilize different columns of draws). There may be 2-4 routes set on each lane, and some Top Rope lanes also feature draws for Lead Climbing.
Top Rope Belay and Lead Climb/Belay in our facility requires EITHER first passing a proficiency check or taking a class with us.
We also have an upstairs training and warmup area for members - it's not available for guests with a Day Pass, but if you're not coming often enough to warrant Membership, a Punch Card (pre-bundled visits) does include upstairs access.
