After tonight, Mira and I have experienced all three Seattle (area) climbing gyms: Vertical World Seattle and Redmond, and Stone Gardens. And the winner is: Vertical World Seattle for it's size and variety of top rope routes. Second place goes to Stone Gardens in Ballard (where we went tonight) which had some very fun and interesting climbs, but devotes over half the space to bouldering. Finally, VW Redmond was okay, but last in my books because of it's smaller size and short, more cluttered routes. P.S. My new, for real, phone number is 206-618-2575.
