I visited Half Moon two days in a row while visiting Seattle. Top notch setting, vibe, and employees! I really enjoyed the amount of slab available as well as the world cup route.

Great atmosphere with a friendly, welcoming staff and consistently fun, creative problems. The community here keeps growing and is genuinely supportive. It’s a place that makes you want to come back and climb more.

My favorite place to boulder! The owners have obviously taken care to create a welcoming environment for all, including providing nice touches like cotton pads in the bathroom for cleaning up your face after a workout. Most importantly, the bouldering problems are fun and the route setters are always figuring out new and interesting ways of challenging boulderers at all levels. Love Half Moon!

Easy going atmosphere, friendly staff, and superbly clean. A hidden gem in North Seattle for beginning climbers and veteran enthusiasts alike. Definitely worth stopping in! Proved to be worth a membership upon first visit. It benefits from being owned and operated by a local family and it shows - tons of care for the community and the staff seem very happy to be at work.

**UPDATE - 3/20** Been to the Gym now and had a great time! Walls are super fresh and the holds are super sticky which makes for some fun climbing, but sore hands! Plenty of variation in difficulty and some cool areas to play around on (like the archway). The area isn't huge but still plenty to do, which is nice to be able to climb the whole gym. Positive change from stone gardens where they section you off and you can only climb in one area for an hour and a half. I've already paused my VW membership and plan to just get a punch card so I can start going here. **UPDATE - 3/20** So excited to finally have a local gym for all us Greenwood climbers. I haven't been able to give it a go yet, but I'm already excited by the layout and routes set up. Plus, the owners seem really nice and excited to bring us a local gym. Thanks halfmoon and can't wait to climb with you all!
