  People seemed friendly enough, but space is quite small (the pictures make it look bigger than it actually is), some of the routes go quite high and are scary to downclimb from (few dedicated downclimbing holds), amenities very limited. Sure if you can only climb at really weird times or just have money to throw around, maybe this place makes sense. Probably could get away with taking your shirt off at quieter hours if you're looking for that. But overall, I was left with a feeling this was not worth the activation fee + around $55/month for a membership (depending on how long you want to commit). The larger climbing gyms are more money yes, but not all that much more, and give you much more bang for your buck.

  When I listened to Go! My Favorite Sports Team! Explain that rock climbing is the easiest sport to get into, and the community is the nicest and most welcoming, MCC is the shining star of that claim. I haven’t been climbing since I was a teeny little guy, and I’ve been looking for something to better my general health. I just got the day pass to check it out, and wound up NEEDING to see which routes I can climb to the top (not many) and chatting with the regulars. Everyone is so nice that I somehow ended up doing grueling abs exercises with a group, and having a ton of fun. I’m always polite but guarded around strangers, but these folks felt like old friends. The vibes alone have made a new member.

  I have been a member for the past year here and absolutely love it. I used to work nights and its hard to describe the feeling of biking over on a summer night, listening to your own music and having the gym to yourself for hours. Pretty unbeatable. Problems are challenging with lots of variation. Very easy to bring friends along, and the day passes are super affordable compared to competitors. Will be signing up for another year!

  This place is the perfect spot for me. Because I work at bars, I have a very odd schedule. I come in to climb around midnight, put on my music and it’s always a great workout, with great routes set. And always clean! On top of being the only gym that can fit my schedule, it’s also the cheapest, and my favorite one I’ve been to. Very much worth the membership fee!
