Best indoor rock climbing!. Love this gym. Everyone is so friendly and helpful. My family spends so much time there that we have decided that THIS is the funnest place in the Springs. They offer gourmet coffees and snacks. The coffees are delicious!

We have met so many wonderful people there. If you love being somewhere where there is a positive vibe you need to check it out. You won't be disappointed.

Cheers and Happy Climbing!

Staff needs better training. This rock climbing gym is just okay. Not nearly as well designed as gyms in Denver or Boulder. It is a bit "gimmicky" with painted walls and chairs bolted on the climbing walls. The route setting leaves a lot to be desired. The setters should venture up north or take some setting courses from some of the outstanding setters in Colorado to learn how to set quality of routes at all levels. A few of the staff members are knowledgeable but the newer ones (especially the females) need more training and experience. Their comments reveal a lack of understanding of the mechanics of proper belaying. It is great that the gym has many auto-belays. Unfortunately, most of them are only useful for beginners as there are no moderate to difficult routes below them.
