Our Story

Meet the Founders! Two families. One dream.

We had each been working independently to bring a dedicated climbing gym to Hillsboro for many years. By chance, we met at the CWA trade show in Salt Lake City in 2022 and agreed to keep talking. After arriving back home in Hillsboro, we met up to talk about our visions over some barbeque. After several meetings, we agreed that our dreams matched and our varied experience and skill sets would make a good team. We were off to get our collective dream of a local climbing gym off the ground.

Finding a home for our gym

One of the biggest hurdles we’ve had to overcome is finding a space for the gym. We’ve vetted dozens of buildings over the course of many years that just couldn’t fit our oversize gym dreams. By chance we discovered an empty retail storefront near Shute Park that looked like it had promise. After measuring the ceilings and running a whole lot of numbers, we were able to lease Suite B2, soon to be the new home of Beyond The Wall Climbing. Since then we have been hard at work; opening up the space and exposing the ceilings to get the height needed for our bouldering walls. Construction will start in early 2024.
