Climbing at Palladium

Tried out climbing and bouldering at Palladium with Kenway, Eric, and Adrienne. It was fun, but there aren't as many routes, and there's no chalk allowed on the top-rope. I bought some climbing shoes though and they seemed to work fairly well. There are some nice boulder problems. I definitely couldn't do most of them but I finished two. Kenway was a monster as usual. Kenway belayed Eric so I didn't see his climbs as much, but Adrienne was doing very well.

Did you guys have to do some sort of belay certification?

Yeah, we had to show that we were competent, but after that they let us alone. If we didn't have belayers though, they would have done it. they said their job is basically being belay-slaves.

Cool, I'll make sure to bring my shoes whenever I come down, and we can climb a bit at the end of a workout (the short ones anyways).
