  I unfortunately only got to come here once during a business trip, but it is a great gym. Rope, autobelay and bouldering. One of the best kids areas I've seen. Like the chairs made out of crash pads. I agreed with the grading levels. I always like gyns that do a tbd for a minute, had plenty available. Slabs had lot of traversey, technical options. They also have a little top out area on part of it. Autobelay rputes were great - loved a few mystery ones. The walls are short because of the building height but just means you have to climb more! I had previously strained some pulleys so I had to take it easy, but I really liked the environment here. A few puppers laying around, relaxed people, kids enjoying an actual equipped kids area. I highly recommend. A humble and friendly place.

  My wife and I did the first time learners class with Collin and he was great. He was a good teacher and was very encouraging. The gym had plenty of routes for everyone from beginners like us to experienced climbers.

  Great kids climbing experience! My 7-year-old had an awesome introductory rock climbing lesson here. The facility is well-maintained and atmosphere was positive and supportive. We will definitely be back!

  Came here for a visit while I was in town on business. Google says this is the premier climbing gym in Omaha... highly disagree. First of all, they advertised having 12 auto-belay lanes for solo climbing, and they only had... maybe six? The building they are in isn't very tall, so all tall routes are only maybe 15-20 feet tall at most. They're more like advanced Boulder problems than proper tall routes. Routes are color graded, which is fine, but took a little getting used to. I showed up at 7, and the employee at the front desk made sure to tell me multiple times that they closed at 8, so "are you sure you wanna climb?" After getting the safety brief I was released to do my thing. At approximately 755, I finished and started removing gear to leave. Right at 8, a number of people were showing up and putting on harnesses and just starting their climbs. So wait, you close at 8, but only for me? No clue what that was all about. I did not use the bouldering area, so I can't comment on that side. Seemed okay though. Overall, pretty unimpressed. I thought that being on a time crunch would make it so I would have to rush through climbs, but with so little to climb by myself, I ran out of routes in maybe 30 minutes. Will not be coming back.
