Has anyone checked out the new rock climbing gym in downtown Vancouver, WA? I stepped in yesterday for the first time. They are scheduled to open Nov 11th. IT LOOKS SWEET. A couple of the best route setters from the PRG (sorry Gary) are the new owners and they have done a great job. To Hans and Michael :brew:

 

So cool having a climbing gym 2 miles from my house. bye bye circut and PRG.

Its a pretty nice place and I'm sure Hans and Michael will do some cool things with it. My estimate was that it has somewhere under half of the wall area as the PRG both for routes and bouldering. They didn't do any cracks.

The overhanging lead area does look to be fun and the holds are mostly the newer kind that seem to suck your hand onto them. When I was there for the opening the routes were so-so because they had just had a setting clinic. Once they get serious on the setting the quality should go way up.

Its a bit far for me but if I was a Vancouverite I'd be excited.

Also, learn to love lime green.
