Summary
We were here 06 march 2019
This climbing gym offers possibilities for rookies up to advanced climbers. To top rope or lead on your own you need to take a test to show your belay or lead knowledge when you come in for th first time. For beginner climbers, the gym offers an ‘Intro to climbing course’ to attain your belay certification with confidence. We really liked this venue for its fun and diverse routes on the lead wall and its facilities. The boulder section was too harshly graded for our taste. We recommend this gym for its lead or top rope section only.

Summary
We were here 20 April 2019
If you are looking for a worthwhile gym in the area of Missoula this is your go-to place. The facility holds every aspect of climbing you might want to try in a beautiful open location. The only downside is that the routes are graded a little bit to easy, which might make you overconfident when going outside. As a compete rookie you can enjoy both bouldering and top-roping here. More advanced climbers can also practice lead climbing here.

The Gym
ROUTES
A beautiful open gym with boulder, top rope, lead and autobelay routes. There are some dedicated lead walls and most of the top rope walls are possible to lead as well. In addition, there are some walls that resemble crack climbing. A very all round gym. The routes itself felt graded on the easier side. Especially when comparing the grading with outdoor crags around Missoula. There are slab, vertical and overhanding walls and there were technical and burly routes to be found. We would definitely recommend this gym as a training facility for beginners and medium level climbers. The only drawback may be that advanced climbers would have difficulty finding a challenge here.
FACILITIES

Training area
Belaying devices at every top rope
Showers
Climbing test
Before being allowed to climb in this gym a climbing test is required. This includes watching an instructive video and a practical session in which to you show you can belay for both top rope and lead climbing.
