    There. Or here. Sometimes both.
    I haven't been to VE since the mid 90s. It was fun back then. I'm sure it still is.

    Been climbing 1-2x a week for the last 4-5 years. My wife and I are very addicted. I like the height of the Minneapolis gym and the new cracks. I dislike the layout (especially the bouldering) and how crowded it is. I'm sure it will improve though.

    What days do you guys climb? Maybe my GF and I can meet you there and group up. Do you lead climb? We don't yet but it looks like fun.

    How much are guest passes? I'd tag along with you guys one of these Tuesdays. Today's a no go. Gym was closed yesterday and usually take a day off Tuesdays... everything's thrown off by a day this week.

    Probably... if you don't go during (and I suppose after also) the Redbull Crashed Ice event.

    Thurs/Fri/Sat.. but I'll be downtown Saturday probably from 5 or so.

    There's no ice to fall through... they might fall off, but not through...
