Stone Moves
I’ve written about a solid rock climbing gym in Houston that I frequently climb at. The name of the gym is Stone Moves and it truly is the best rock climbing gym in Houston. It fits all the criteria i spoke about in that post and goes beyond. I’ve been climbing there regularly since I started in 2003 and still think it’s the best.
Stone Moves
The owner, John is a super down to earth guy and a very experienced climber. He’s always willing to help people out if they get stuck on a problem, and just really easy to get along with. The rest of the staff is super nice as well and they all climb, so they can all help out if you need it.
They have a very wide variety of routes for both bouldering and top roping that range from very beginner level to very challenging. The routes are very well designed to simulate real formations and they’re always a lot of fun.
They host a climbing class where they give lessons on strength training and rock climbing techniques.
Their is a climbing team and they host frequent competitions to further challenge yourself. They also have deals for climbing parties which are great for kids, and Wednesday nights you get 2 climbing passes for the price of one.
