Bouldering + rope · 3605 SE Miehe Dr, Grimes, IA 50111, Iowa
A gym in Grimes near Des Moines with over 900 m² of climbing surface and the full range on offer: bouldering, top rope and lead. Some of the top-rope stations run on auto-belays, so rope climbing here is possible without a partner too.
Beginners get two separate courses. The 90-minute belay class covers putting on a harness, tying in and belaying another climber — without it you will not be handed a rope. Bouldering 101 covers the rules, the grading scale and reading routes, and devotes its final section entirely to how to fall.
