Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

You’ll need a climbing pass, and if you don’t have your own gear, we also have gear rentals. This is all you really need to climb at our facility, provided that you have closed-toed shoes, and a current liability waiver on file. All rentals are extra, but we do offer Admission+rental packages!

All of our rentals are optional. If you would rather wear your sneakers – go for it! Our shoes help with added friction, but ultimately we want you to be comfortable. Chalk helps dry out sweaty hands and this will help you grip more easily.  It’s ok if you don’t want the rentals now- you can always change your mind and get them later if you don’t want them right off the bat. Flip-flops, Sandals, Vibram Five-fingers and barefoot climbing are strictly prohibited on the climbing walls.

Waivers are required for everyone to enter the climbing areas – Parents or Legal Guardians must sign for Minors. This can either be done ahead of time online at our Waiver page, or in person at one of our three kiosks.

It depends. If you’re going to be a passive observer- then no. Most folks just want to sit and watch, and that’s totally cool! If you’re going to be an active participant, and will be helping your family climb, by clipping them in and out of our autobelays, belaying them on top rope or lead, or spotting them in our bouldering area (essentially anything that puts you on our grey climbing mats)- then yes, you need to fill out a waiver.

No. We do not have childcare, and we do not have any plans to provide childcare in the future. We also do not have a kids only area, where you can drop off your kids to climb on their own. We do have an entire wall with about 10 lines worth of climbing that is specifically set for kids, but it is not “kids only,” and anyone can climb there- it is a bit more private than our other areas.

Yes! Absolutely! We have classes for all levels of ability, from beginner all the way up through advanced climbing. Rewiew available classes and book today! We offer kids programs check them out here.

No. We are strictly a climbing-oriented facility.

We are located between Powers and Tutt Blvd., just off the Dublin exit. Our address is 6022 Tutt Blvd., Colorado Springs, CO 80923. Right next to the large orange Public Storage building, and just a little South of the Chick-Fil-A!

While we understand that folks might be experienced- we don’t know that until they can demonstrate proficiency. Everyone that comes in is required to undergo a facility and safety orientation, regardless of experience level. As far as belaying and lead belaying/climbing goes- you need to get checked off by one of our staff before you’re allowed to do so. All belay and lead belay checks take under 5 minutes (you either know it or you don’t.), but if you fail, you will be required to come back another day to test again, or take a class if you fail multiple times.

We set from 5.5 to 5.13 on rope, and from V-0 to V-10.

We strive to have complete turnover in the gym every 8 weeks.

Not currently.

Nope. Sorry!
