Mat Lock

What a great crew! We booked a couple of guided climbing half days and couldn’t have been happier. The guides (Dan and Tracy) were wonderful - super helpful, relaxed but attentive and focused on our having a good time. The climbing is awesome - our first time on sand stone - loved it.

Katerina Zakonova

Amazing staff, amazing store. Went in for shoes and harness. Staff was very knowledgeable and looked out for climbers’ safety. Great place!

Travis Ouellette

I was only in there for a minute killing time but they had everything a novice would need to be safe and a variety of stuff that I'm not advanced to understand. Staff was chill and always good to support a small business

Santaflea

Glad there is an independent climbing store here. That other big box place doesn't have an ounce of charisma and cannot be compared to buying local.

Nicolai Cauchy

Super friendlya and helpful, a very large selection of new and used gear (for such a small shop), great for multipitch, bouldering, hiking.... Many thanks!

Kent Krauza

Great climbing shop with laid back and knowledgeable staff.

Fritz Nuffer

Not only does this shop carry a good inventory of climbing gear at competitive prices, the employees also have a great sense of humor and are fun to be around. Keep up the good work!

Aviv Milner

Spoke to Travis, the younger man who is helping the owner. The guy is incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, helpful and kind. The store has the best tips, beta, printed topos, guide info, books and more. If you don't know what to do or need help with something local to red rocks, don't go anywhere else. Side note: Travis actually took me up to Cadillac crack (offwidth) and my buddy and I had a blast. He lead and brought his #12 and big bros. The guy is beyond helpful. Additional note: did you lose gear? I did! Travis helped me get my #4 back. Once again, a local who knows the lay of the land.

Ron Sit

Travis was extremely knowledgeable of the local trad climbs and gave me good recommendations on which route I should check out for my level of climbing. He most likely saved our group from having to climb in the dark as he was able to recommend a piece of gear that allowed us to top belay two people at the same time with ease. These people know their stuff and I will gladly shop here for their expertise, knowledge and convenience.

Robert Guevara

I love this place, but my past two experiences have been kinda strange. There are two guys that work here. One of them is super friendly and will take the time to answer questions/concerns. You can tell he genuinely wants to help people. Then there’s the other dude. He seems like he’s completely checked out and almost feels like any question you ask will annoy him. I’d compare him to Toby from The Office, but even Toby has some comedic relief from time to time. This guy is more like a DMV clerk. Great selection of gear though, and a 50/50 chance you’ll get great customer service.

Erik Wright

The staff were very helpful and friendly over the phone, verifying availability of specific shoe sizes and offering advice on alternative climbing destinations during a rainy period. The clothing selection was a little mixed, with many items available in only one or two sizes, but this might be due to our off-season visit in early January. Although I wasn't looking for gear the selection looked pretty complete and certainly better than the local REI that we also visited.

All the staffs are experienced and knowledgeable. They give you good and practical advice when you need information to decide which product to buy. They are careful and evaluate what you need for your best. They also have consignment service that you can leave your thing to sell and you can get credit to buy new things you need.

Evan Thomas

Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Run by knowledgeable climbers and quality people. Highly recommend stopping by this store if you need some gear or to use their free WiFi, showers at their gym next door, and to get fed some quality beta

Daniela Gaudino

The guy that helped me was very knowledgeable of the products and the hiking/climbing in general. Not your typical sport store because finally there is an expert here that knows what he is talking about. He really didn't do any pressure in me buying anything and actually helped me in making the right choice explaining to me the differences between hiking/climbing in Nevada VS other places since I am new to the area

Luke Logue

Travis was very helpful when I chose a harness. Prices are the same if not better than what you’ll find online. They also have a spot for you to clip in and test your harness. Haven’t found a better place in town for climbing gear.

Dakota McCullough

Friendly staff, very relaxed vibe and natural approach, not pushy. They helped me get set up with a good pair of climbing shoes. From a Vegas native viewpoint, go here! Support a local business! Looking forward to next time I need to come back. Edit: I was in and out fairly quickly and the only reason I haven't given five stars just yet is that I haven't gone here enough to give a more solid review!

I like to come here to support local businesses. REI is cool and all but this place has a better vibe and almost always has better prices especially with the locals discount (ask!) You can put your used clothes and gear on consignment and get store credit if people buy. I recently had $40 in store credit from selling a couple shirts I would never wear again. The blonde chick who works there is super nice.

Wes Morefield

For a smaller space, they have a lot packed in there. The staff has been friendly and knowledgeable. They also do consignment, which makes getting started a little easier. We rented crash pads there rather affordably.

Theja Putta

Great climbing store in Vegas. They also have a huge consignment section as well. Definitely worth checking out if in the Vegas area. They have pretty much any gear you might want to hit the crags in the nearby Red Rock Canyon. When we were there, there are a bunch of La Sportiva demo shoes and apparel at great discounts.

Justin Hernandez

Great selection of climbing shoes & gear! Friendly and knowledgable staff, and occasionally you can find something nice on consignment for a nice price. This is the only climbing shop we have in Las Vegas, and it's a pretty rad one.

Runits

I looked all over for a pair of scrambling shoes, this place had my size (12 1/2) and a good price.

Tappan

The employee was helpful and got me set up with my first climbing harness. They have a rope from the ceiling that lets you test how the sit feels. However, they have a swamp cooler instead of AC, so I quickly began sweating. Granted I sweat more than most, but it was uncomfortable in there. If that changed then I'd easily give them 5★.

Nick Irvine

Always a great rest day side trip while climbing at RR. Tons of gear to drool over and the spot to go for you multi-pitch topo guides! Staff is laid back but super helpful. Feel great about supporting a local shop too. Thanks guys...

seawandering

great customer service! employees all do well with phone service ! I had something shipped across the country painlessly

Shneur Herman

The guy working there was friendly, helpful and very knowledgeable on the products he was selling. Well worth a visit. We purchased approach shoes. Apparently they have the monopoly on those in Vegas🤷‍♂️🤣 …

Diane Hwu

Super knowledgeable, patient staff. They have lots of guidebooks, clothing, and shoes! So many shoes! And their consignment section is definitely worth checking out as well.

Dana Lotan

This shop is awesome! Great selection for women clothing and an amazing clearance room! Staff was super friendly. If you hike/climb/ whatever- go there!

Wilson Rodriguez

Friendly staff, great selection of gear. Purchased a mammut helmet and bouldering book here. I recommend to all interested in finding used and new gear.

beautifulisblue

Awesome place with friendly staff and the most knowledgeable help in town. If you've come to climb at Red Rock, these are the people you want to talk to. Also they have everything a climber could need, or think of needing.

Mason _

Great shop. Employees are awesome and they got everything you need! Buy local!

Marty

Helpful staff and good selection if you need something for the next days mission. Also great deals on used gear.

Katherine Macco

Great place to buy used gear! I got a one-person tent for cheap and would gladly buy boots, backpacks, clothes, and so much other gear here.

Sean Stoops

Pleasant staff and a good selection of gear for all your Red Rock climbing needs. They have quite a bit of stuff from local makers and artists as well!

Donald Fitzsimons

I'm not a rock climber, but I do enjoy a vigorous hike. So I checked this place out for a camel pack and they were extremely helpful, but l was very impressed how they've got rock climbing covered.

amanda anderson

Good place to pick up random gear at possibly a good price. Frequent sales and clearance items, a great place to pick up forgotten pieces for your next assent.

Luke W.

Local advice and knowledge if you're a traveler in need. Good cheap consignment deals can be had too, if you're lucky.

Hah Lol

You have to really stay on people's butts to make sure they order your stuff but I'm gonna give it 5 stars anyway cause it's chill and the employees are nice.

Dustin Michels

Got a very helpful reply when emailed about renting gear!

Chris stoph

Ben VH

This gear shop is AWESOME. If you're in the Vegas area check it out. The staff was incredibly helpful and they carried Misty Mountain harnesses which are surprisingly hard to find and is hands down the best climbing purchase I've made in years. The Consignment area is large and had some solid deals as well.

Jorge Barros

(Translation) Good deal. People with experience. (Original) Buen trato. Gente con experiencia.
