I climb here fairly often, love the gym love the atmosphere, my only complaint is there bouldering rating system, rec= V0 to V2 int= V2 to V4- adv= V4 to V6 open V7+ I can walk up their int routes and can rarely climb anything over V2 outside. Of course that may just be me.
Rock'n and Jam'n in Centennial is a great facility for the all around climber. The slackline gives a little variety.. and the 3 auto belays make a quick workout easy.
