Fun thing to do on a rainy day

Okay. Time for an honest review from someone who is not a parent and/or first time climber…This is the first time I’ve ever felt compelled to leave a Google review. Really want to love this place. Have lived in many areas and belonged to many climbing gyms, but I’ve never experienced anything like this before. This place is a climbing wonderland if you are under the age of 18/21. Otherwise, if you work a 9-5 job, it is a glorified daycare center run by high school “coaches” who do not care what the kids they’re “watching” do. Super disappointing considering the potential. I understand catering to younger crowds and think it’s great to get them into climbing, but at least have some morning hours (doesn’t open until 10 am) so adults can climb without fear of crushing a child that’s running around unsupervised beneath them…Or ask your “coaches” to, ya know, actually watch and manage the kids rather than sit around bro-ing out with their friends while the kids have domain over the gym. I’ve never experienced such disregard for safety in any climbing gym/youth climbing group. Or just disregard for other climbers. It really feels like you’re unwelcome if you are not new to climbing or a child/family. I’ve lived in the area on and off for about 10 years, and it’s only gotten worse with time. There are a few older staff members who are fantastic, and I hate to give them a bad review. But the majority of the staff just don’t seem to care and parents are nonexistent. Route wise: They reset the boulders often (that’s what the kids climb, mostly). Top-rope much less frequently (saw stuff up from May at end of September). Lead wall is almost never reset—same routes on most areas for years, seemingly. Otherwise, they have a great lil climbing shop, semi-frequent demos from reputable brands, a kilter board, and a nice sized traditional workout area. If you can visit during off hours, you’ve found your gym. If not, be prepared…

It's a lot of fun to climb here and the staff are very nice.
Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.
The upstairs area seems to be targeted to younger kids as well as beginner friendly style climbing. However, whats known as the annex has a weight room, kilterboard, campus board, and cave style climbing which is certainly for more advanced climbers. Then the main floor bouldering is more for general climbing with an emphasis on the average member. Which I would say is somewhere between 20s-mid 30s. There's always lively crowds after 5pm
