Haven't been here in absolutely ages; I'm 19 now and was 13 going on 14 the last time I was here, in the summer of 2018, but I want to say that this place holds sentimental and nostalgic value to me. Climbing itself was very fun, and in the summers of 2016 and 2017, it all came together to make a truly amazing summer. While 2018 was a year of transition to adolescence for me, and I had great experiences of different kinds as a teen, going here was a big part of the last hurrah of my childhood before entering adolescence. I also remember having fun not only with staff who I was excited to see again after almost a full year but also with other campers. This was THE icon of summer for me and is an experience I'll forever cherish.

This was a great experience. Mateo at the front desk is so warm, informative and welcoming. Benny our instructor really cares about his craft and wants you to have the best strategies to have a healthy happy time bouldering! The gym itself has a wide variety of problems that are super well structured. Thank you Bridges!
