We have been coming here for over a year now, and love it. We took the intro to climbing course and haven’t looked back since. It’s such a fun workout physically and mentally. The staff is great and so is the community here.

Nice gym. Good use of space for its size. Has everything you need in a climbing gym.

It's a fine climbing gym. Good fitness equipment. Not great, not terrible. The vibe is kinda flat.

No bad vibes here… Excellent route setting, and one of the best weight rooms in any climbing gym. The least pretentious gym option in the front range!

Great TR, lead and bouldering options. A clean workout space, matched perfectly with a friendly and inviting staff. They've gone out of their way to help me and I'll always refer friends and fam to climb at BRC.

Has an old school climbing gym vibe, I love it. My favorite parts are the friendly staff, awesome fully equipped weight room, and auto belays. Lead climbing walls are shorter than other gyms in the area but quality is good!

Tons of climbing variety for all skill levels, bouldering, top rope (with autobelays), and lead.

The setting offers a nice variety of climbing styles. They set climbs through the week so there is always something new to try. Routes are up for long enough to project, but not too long so I am never bored.
