    • Do not bring intoxicants onto the premises.
    • If you climb during regular business hours (8:00am to 5:00pm), please be aware of parking: we have five spots. If the lot is full, consider street parking. After 5:00pm you are more than welcome to park in the lot. Do not park in front of any of the doors of any part of the building.

    • Respect the SLO-Op Crew.
    • Do not leave children unattended.
    • No children under 14 allowed without adult supervision or special permissions.
    • DO NOT open the door to visitors for any reason. If their barcode doesn’t work, too bad. Do not prop the door open.

    New facility information:

    • In addition to topouts, we’ve extended the wall to the rafters – you are not supposed to top out there – you are to down climb the route.  In general, our walls are VERY high (some gyms boast walls that high as their top rope routes; do not attempt to finish routes until you are confident in your abilities to both climb the routes, climb back down, and take the falls.
    • SLO Op is tall! Make sure you have a competent spotter!
    • In time we hope to host teams and clinics. If you’re interested in this, let the management know.
    • Watch your head in the rafters!
    • Please bring in donations of posters/photos/whatever for possible decoration!
    • If you are unable to get the door to open, please contact Yishai or Kristin via telephone. We will try to respond as quickly as possible.
    • You get a 10% discount if you show your card at Foothill Cyclery, Bouldering.com, or SLOVeg.com!
