Again? There are hints there was one a while ago that closed.

It is east-end of downtown, as I understand these things, and looks ok. I visited, but since much of their bouldering was closed (setting for a comp) and I couldn't be sure of finding someone to top-rope with, I didn't actually stay.

I did bump into Jody (the manager of Coyote Rock Gym in Ottawa) while wandering around looking. Apparently he was in the gym helping to set for the comp.

Next time I'm in town, I'm sure I'll return and actually climb.

Is this Higher Ground or is there one closer?

This is Grand River Rocks -- which is on Borden, at Charles st.

Higher Ground is the one I was thinking about when I mentioned "hints there was one a while ago that closed". The latest "news" entry on their website is 2006. When I asked around about a climbing gym in Kitchener earlier (maybe 6-12 months ago) I was told there wasn't one, and that the closest was Guelph. (Guelph Grotto.) It does look like Bingemans may have a kids wall -- but that's not the same.
