Finding the available climbing gyms in a particular area is easy if you use these resources.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Climbing Gear
  • Climbing Harnesses
  • Climbing Haul Bags
  • Climbing Helmets
  • Climbing Ropes
  • Climbing Shoes
  1. Step 1

    Go to Climbing.com and look for gyms within your state and city.

  2. Step 2

    Run a search on a major search engine like Google or Yahoo with the keywords "climbing," "gyms," and the name of your town, city, or county.

  3. Step 3

    Ask around at the local sport-climbing crags to see if anyone knows about gyms in the area. This may unearth little-known gyms that don't advertise, or it might get you invited to someone's home gym.

  4. Step 4

    Use the phone book - it still works. Look under Fitness, Climbing, or Mountaineering.
