    If you are going to Red Rocks to climb, this is a great place to stop by and pick up any things you have forgotton, or to buy that new 'toy' to try out on the rocks. Fred and others who work there are passionate about climbing and will really give you some good tips about the Red Rocks area if you want to talk to them.

    Also, there is a good climbing gym next door if it's too hot or late to get out to Red Rocks before dark.

    What To Buy: Ropes, shoes, carabiners, passive protection of all kinds, climbing clothes, water bottles etc.. General climbing/mountaineering gear.

    What To Pay: About average prices on gear.

     Yes, I agree with you. The Paris Buffet is my number one pick for best food at the price in Vegas. We like to go for late breakfast.Excellent. The line is long, but be patient!

     Awesome, I climbed Dark Shadows when I was there too, such a great climb. Did you go all the way up, or stop at the roof?
