What's the Difference Between Bouldering / Top Rope / Lead Climbing?
Bouldering is climbing up to 15ft (in gym) off the ground without the use of ropes or climbing gear. Pads are provided throughout the bouldering areas and participation in a Safety Orientation is required prior to climbing. This type of climbing is available to climbers of any skill level and does not require a partner.
Top Roping is climbing up to 50ft (in gym) on a rope that is already attached to the top of the wall while being belayed by a certified partner below. This type of climbing is available to climbers of any skill level and requires a partner(s). Belay certification is required prior to climbing. Belay Classes are offered daily, visit a location’s “classes” page for more information or to sign up.
Lead Climbing refers to climbing on our full height walls in areas that do not already have a rope attached at the top. Unlike Top Roping, Lead climbers must bring the rope with them as they progress up the wall. Leading is an advanced form of climbing and not recommended until you have a strong Top Rope climbing foundation. Lead Certification is required prior to leading in our gyms. Classes are offered several times a month at our rope gyms, please review the requirements prior to signing up for this class on a location’s “classes” page.
- Please note:
- Momentum Lehi, SODO, and Silver Street are Bouldering Only gyms.
Momentum Millcreek, Sandy, Fort Union, and Katy offer both Rope Climbing and Bouldering. - We do not allow anyone other than Momentum employees to provide belay instruction inside our gyms.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING…

Great new gym with a lot of space and equipment, but the management are far from the standards that Jeff Petterson started when he began the Quarry and he and his investors have kept at the other Momentums... which is especially surprising since Eric came from the Sandy gym and has experience there...Yoga class scheduled for 6:45 am, with a required 10-minute early arrival and sign-up didn't start until 6:50 because no one was there to open the gym. Eric (one of the co-managers) was called at 6:20 by the yoga instructor (I think) and again at 6:35 by an employee of the Mill Creek location. When he finally arrived there was no apology for the delay or any explanation given... So, I checked in after the class about what happened as 4-5 people who had waited for the class to had left before he arrived.Eric was apparently not in the mood to talk with long-time members (since 2010) when I asked what happened (his tone and demeanor were nonchalant and that of annoyance) as he said the shift lead turned off their phone and offered nothing else before returning to chat with who looked like an employee or friend.

New gym is so nice! I like the spaciousness, the great lighting, and the ambiance. Bouldering isn’t as intimidating as the other two Momentums because you’re not as much on display. I love that you’re able to lead many more of the top rope routes. The grades aren’t super consistent yet but that makes it more fun. I like the variety in the route setting. I like that there isn’t giant fans blowing chalk into your eyes. The workout areas are really nice. Locker rooms are nice as well. Staff are green but breaking in and very nice overall. The overall feeling is chill.Minor nitpicks: everything is still so new, both the walls and holds are like sandpaper - watch out for bloody scrapes if your skin is exposed. Would love an overhanging arch for routes like those found at Mill Creek. Would love a spot to practice clipping and anchoring and stuff on the ground. No crack routes!

It's a great gym but please change the tags I had to start bringing in a magnifying glass to see the tags

Really nice facility! Super clean as they just opened. As others have mentioned, the tags are comically small. I have started bringing my spyglass so I can see the grades from off the mats.

Lots of progress when compared to the Sandy and Millcreek locations. Very spacious with abundant bouldering, good offerings for top rope and lead though it's pretty clear bouldering was the main focus here. The elements that really distinguish this location from the other two are lots of creative seating in the bouldering area, and especially the kids nook (this is not an official moniker, just what I'm calling it). For those of us with the dream of passing on our love of climbing to our small children, there is a small area in the back of the gym with short walls offering auto belay and a beginner bouldering wall. It's contained enough to easily keep the little ones corralled and out of the way of adult climbers. To echo some feedback I've seen from other reviewers, more seating options for chilling or working would be incredible. Also, incremental day pass fees for younger kids, like $8 for 5 and under... Paying $19 post-guest pass for a three year old who will climb for maybe 20 minutes is highway robbery.

Amazing climbing gym. Routes are always challenging so when you do figure them out, you feel accomplished. The December deals they have going on right now are pretty great.

Awesome grand opening! The gym is so big and there’s a good variety of bouldering holds and terrain. There’s 5 squat racks, a leg press, 2 cable machines and a lat pulldown/row machine, a big improvement from Momentum Millcreek. The lifting area is separate from the cardio area which is nice.I’m stoked to climb and lift here more often.A few complaints that could be fixed to be 5 stars.1 - Why are the tags on the boulders so small? They are nearly impossible to read and create a semi dangerous environment because you have to walk up to the wall in order to see the grade.2 - There is no dedicated space to stretch and warmup3 - Why are the hangboards in the lifting area? Millcreek had to enclose the lifting area in glass because of how nasty the area got with chalk. There shouldn’t be chalk in that lifting space. It’s nice that the cardio room is enclosed to avoid that issue, shouldn’t the lifting area be the same?4 - Not really any tables/space to sit with a computer and do some work in between climbs.5 - Still no sauna?
