The Front Climbing Club

I am on team at the Ogden location and I have never had a had a bad experience the front desk staff is really friendly and nice. The coaches will give us hard and productive workouts and are really fun to talk to. The route setters are also very nice and always give beta.There are also a lot of amazing people here I’ve met a lot of really nice and motivating people that will cheer you on and randomly give you beta. The front desk always asks about my competitions and there’s not one day I have gone to the gym where someone from front desk hasn’t come and started a conversation with me during my workout.

For climbing one of the best indoor gyms I have been to. They have great staff and classes available to help you improve while being safe, as a bonus they have weights and yoga upstairs, all around pretty great place.

I always love coming to this place, I love the climbing community and what it stands for. Every time I come there is someone new at the front desk and they are always so positive and kind towards me. Gavyn Guthrie checked me in today and was super chill and his customer service was outstanding. Would recommend.

The Front is excellent, I enjoy the basics of this gym. But be aware that the Ogden location doesn’t have a sauna. (Or a juice bar/basically anything extra) Compared to the one in SLC, this location is pretty basic and needs to rethink its amenities to keep customers.

I've been a member here for 4 years. It's the only climbing gym in Ogden and I wish it had some competition. The Front is both very corporate and unprofessional at the same time. Here's the good an bad. The good: - Routes are reset on a consistent schedule. - The staff is 'surface level' friendly. - The place is kept clean. The bad: - Don't go in the mornings of you're allergic to dogs or don't like inhaling incense during a workout because there is an early shift employee who treats it like his living room. - It closes randomly for staff meetings. I've never seen any other gym do that and it can be very inconvenient. - The route setting is not friendly to people with protanopia color vision deficiency. - It's very expensive. Most expensive gym (of any kind) in Ogden. - Pausing or resuming a membership for injury or long hiatus is a frustrating process and the billing department will not pro-rate a pause to a specific start and stop date. - Nothing new has come to the gym in years. There's been rumors of a kilter or tension board, but it's probably not happening. Bottom line: I'll keep paying because I'm addicted to climbing and there's not a better option in town, but if there were a better option I'd switch in a heartbeat. EDIT: The autobelays are back, which is good. But the Front chain continues to choose to invest in different locations than Ogden. It's very frustrating to see their bigger gyms near Salt Lake get updates while Ogden gets nothing. Parking has also gotten much worse due to some other tenants in the complex. The municipal building to the west closed their street parking.
