It’s nice to climb here when central and south are busy, very Covid safe and friendly employees. Superb training area upstairs, clean facility. My only gripe is that it’s easy to trip on the steel ramp downstairs for the elevator.

The top out section of the set is probably one of my favorites since it encourages me to conquer my fear of heights! The facility is great with the traverse and spray wall, a spacious weight lifting section, and a wonderfully yoga room! Not to mention that the staff and community there is great!

You will not find better setting in the city. I wish it was twice the size, but they set gold here, just like the other 2 gyms. Tons of space upstairs, staff are incredible people, just wish they had more swag!

Awesome gym, great during covid and couldn't be happier to switch from the insanely busy Movement gyms. Cheaper as well and will be using the 24/7 access once we have our baby in February. Setting is great, 1/4 of the wall changed every Wednesday so there is always something new. Training area is great and plenty of room for more equipment when the time comes after covid.

First time trying the DBC location up north and I really liked it. The staff was friendly right when we walked in the door. The location is different than most climbing gyms that I have been to because you actually descend into the gym. So the top of the walls are at the same height as the door you walked into. I liked this underground sort of feel.The routes are E, M, or H (easy, medium, or hard) which I'd imagine makes it super beginner friendly. I had not been climbing since COVID first started so I appreciated having a bunch of easy problems. The gym is not huge, but has a surprising amount of problems for the size of the space.
