| Wow it looks to be good size. I will be in the Boston area @ X-Mass time. will the gym be open by then ? If so perhaps I will come check you out. My nephew has expressed a desire to give climbing a try and wants me to take him to a gym or local crag(weather permitting, but I doubt that). 'N will yah have any cracks for the old farts ? |  FLAG |

| We should be open near xmas time, we still don't have a specific date yet. Inspectors can be tedious.....It's a close call, if you're around after the holiday your chances are better... no cracks here....unfortunately...but we do have one at our other location, the Rhode Island Rock Gym. p.s. i ain't no old fart and i like cracks too :) |  FLAG |

| Cool @ possibly being open. My dad grew up in Deadham and he said he can show me a couple little bouldering areas in the woods there. So maybe we will come sniffing around for a look even if you aren't open yet. NO CRACKS ? All that real estate and NO CRACKS ? |  FLAG |

| I love the fact that you can top out, and it looks like you can walk around then. Is this correct?? If so this will save some knees. I wish the gym I go to had that. But it doesn't so we just have to let go and drop when you get to the top of the problem. |  FLAG |
