I
recently
had
the
unfortunate
experience
of
visiting
Triangle
Rock
Club
and
let
me
tell
you,
it
was
a
complete
disaster
from
start
to
finish.
I'd
rather
crawl
up
a
gravel
driveway
than
subject
myself
to
such
a
dreadful
place
again.
First
and
foremost,
the
boulder
route
setting
was
like
a
cruel
joke
played
by
someone
with
a
twisted
sense
of
humor.
The
routes
were
not
only
uninspiring
but
downright
terrible.
Trying
to
find
a
flow
was
like
attempting
to
waltz
through
a
minefield
blindfolded.
Whoever
is
responsible
for
setting
these
routes
must
have
been
aiming
for
frustration,
not
fun.
As
if
the
terrible
climbing
experience
wasn't
enough,
the
staff
managed
to
make
the
situation
even
worse.
I've
been
to
my
fair
share
of
gyms,
but
never
have
I
encountered
such
a
bizarre
and
unhelpful
bunch.
Asking
about
equipment
felt
like
entering
the
twilight
zone.
Apparently,
providing
Grigris
is
a
luxury
that
this
gym
can't
afford,
and
inquiring
about
an
ATC
was
met
with
a
nonchalant
shrug.
It's
almost
as
if
they're
actively
trying
to
discourage
people
from
climbing.
Now,
let's
talk
about
cleanliness
–
or
rather,
the
lack
thereof.
The
boulder
area
had
the
distinct
aroma
of
stale
chicken
nuggets,
a
smell
I
never
thought
I'd
associate
with
a
place
meant
for
physical
activity.
And
if
that
wasn't
repulsive
enough,
there
was
a
patch
of
vomit
in
the
main
area
that
seemed
to
have
been
left
there
as
some
sort
of
sick
decoration.
It
sat
untouched
for
what
felt
like
an
eternity,
turning
the
gym
into
a
breeding
ground
for
all
things
unpleasant.
Overall,
my
visit
to
TRC
was
an
exercise
in
disappointment
and
frustration.
I
would
strongly
advise
against
subjecting
yourself
to
this
nightmare
of
a
facility
unless
you
have
a
strange
affinity
for
terrible
routes,
rude
staff,
and
the
distinct
scent
of
old
fast
food.
Save
your
time
and
money
–
go
climb
elsewhere.
