When I visited Earth Treks one afternoon on a Saturday and it was buzzing with activities but not overly crowded. I checked in and headed to the huge locker room there was a foot washing station that I especially liked. I spent some time at the huge boulder area which had tons of problems that you'd ever be able to solve in a day. By the time I went home, I was pretty tired and the skin on my fingers was almost gone but I was happy with what I found there.
Whether you are novice or a pro, Earth Treks center has more than 400 roped routes and boulder walls that cater for all experience levels. If you are completely new at this or want to boost your bouldering level there are some paid classes with a friendly staff ready to get you started and to help you boost your skill level.
