crazychicknladyWe've recently joined a local rec center (well, we've signed up for a one month membership so far). The main feature that appealed to H, S, and me is their rock wall.
They have three levels of difficulty. I've only made it to the top of the beginner wall, but I've only had the chance to climb twice (I need to have someone watch C while I do). My arms get sore fairly quickly - I'm not in climbing shape, yet. I'm not sure I could make it all the way up the intermediate wall, even if I tried when well rested.
I'm impressed by how long H sticks with it when she climbs. She'll last twenty minutes, while I can only last about five. S tends to climb for only five minutes at a stretch, but then she'll sometimes try again two or three more times before we leave the center.
The first photo is S on the intermediate wall, the second is H on the beginner wall, and the third photo is a shot of the beginner wall (right most rope) and part of the advanced wall (left rope).
