hey anyone know if a Denver area gym has a crack on autobelay

Boulder Rock Club has one. I can't tell you anything about it because I assiduously avoid it.

BRC crack too low angle to really provide workout, unless you need to work on technique

The 4 upstairs cracks at BRC have autobelays and are probably 5.8-5.10+ish but are too short (about the size of the bouldering walls). You would have to run them back to back for an effective workout, but the middle one on the right wall is actually quite good for training ringlocks/rattly fingers.

Forgot about the ones upstairs

Not an auto belay but the two adjustable bouldering walls upstairs at the Golden ET creates a baggy hands crack that you can make steep AF.

BRC full of head phone wearing, non-talking types. Not great vibes.

Well dude is looking for an autobelay, so maybe that's exactly their jam.

I find people there to be very friendly. Haven't noticed headphones. YMMV.

Not Denver, but CityROCK in Colorado Springs has a 44' adjustable crack with an autobelay (or top rope).  The setters adjust the width every week.  This week it's a difficult stacked hands off width.

The gym has a very friendly vibe, promoted vigorously by the staff...

Ascent in Fort Collins has a sculpted hand crack, splitter hand and splitter finger crack but the cityROCK crack sounds pretty rad.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
