billcoe Posted October 8, 2007 Posted October 8, 2007 I copied Kirstens post in events and put it here as the rope up discussion is about to inundate it there. "SALE!SALE!SALE! Climb Max Mountaineering is having a customer appreciation party and sale! Saturday October 13th, 10am - 10pm. Big discounts on climbing gear, music, free beer and more!! We will be showing a film about the Portland climbing scene by local climber Juan Rodriquez. Call if you have questions 503.797.1991. See you there! Cheers! " Quote
kevbone Posted October 9, 2007 Posted October 9, 2007 Climb Max Mountaineering So…..where is Climb Max these days…..they have moved too many times for me to keep track. Quote
gt5816v Posted October 9, 2007 Posted October 9, 2007 (edited) 28th and Sandy, at least the were there a month ago. I stopped by yesterday around noon and they weren,t open.. didn't occur to me that the might not be there. Looked normal from the street.... Edited October 9, 2007 by gt5816v Quote
Kevin_Matlock Posted October 10, 2007 Posted October 10, 2007 Yup, that's their current loc (right behind a music store... or was it a ski shop???). They were likely closed for Col. Day. Was in there a couple weeks ago and was told they signed something like a 5 year lease so they are there for a while. I get the distinct impression that they hate moving as much as we hate having to re-find them. Quote
dan_forester Posted October 11, 2007 Posted October 11, 2007 the couple of times I've stopped by there in the last half year or so (pockets literally stuffed with cash, ducats, cowrie shells, etc., desperate to exchange legal tender for climbing gadgets at my favorite climbing shop)...they've been closed. I just can't ever remember their odd hours. too bad because I really do like climb max. maybe I'll try to swing by this Saturday. Quote
hemp22 Posted October 11, 2007 Posted October 11, 2007 they're always closed on sundays and mondays....at least since they've changed ownership and moved to the 28th & Sandy location. The exact hours (usually 10am-7pm) are on their website. It can be a little inconvenient for us Mon-Fri 9-5'ers if we're used to having our gear stores open on Sundays - but it's just a small group running the place now and I respect their need to have some time off to climb too. Anyway, looking forward to this saturday. Quote
Chad_A Posted October 12, 2007 Posted October 12, 2007 Cool, looking forward to Saturday. Hopefully I get out of work on time! Quote
billcoe Posted October 14, 2007 Author Posted October 14, 2007 Wow, these guys rule! I didn't get there till 7:21 pm and the parking lot was full of folks, food and beer. Bought some gear, quaffed some beer, said hi and then hit the bricks, but everyone else looked prepared to spend the night! Side note: special thanks to the Climb Max dudes and dudettes for going the extra mile and getting GOOD beer.! I'll try not to be so tired next year, hope it's an annual thing. Quote
