This is hands down the best gym in Colorado! The setters are amazing and truly want to make you a better climber! Staff is amazing! I was a member here for over two years and visit often as it’s truly a community. It’s like going home and actually liking your family and having so many amazing cousins! Whetstone will forever be my home gym!

Excellent route setting and very helpful management. Owner Darrell was patient and productive with a billing issue. Make sure to check out Whetstone and the Bivy after your session is done!

This is an awesome place to climb with a very helpful, non-judgemental staff and patrons. It has hundreds of climbing paths that are regularly modified, with varying levels of difficulty. It's an amazing place to climb.
