We checked out Riverfront Rock Gym during the summer of 2022 while we were camping in Wenatchee…read more It was one of those really hot summers with temperatures in the north of 90 degrees Fahrenheit. After checking out in the morning, we still wanted to do more in Wenatchee before heading back to Seattle. We quickly polled the kids while yelping to see what was available in the area for a good, kid-friendly fun. Unanimously, rock climbing was the top (well, the only) choice and off we went! The front desk staff were very friendly, inviting, and professional handling a large group of four families. Digitally signing the liability forms on their iPads was pretty simple and we were able to get the kids checked in with proper shoes and climbing harness apparatus. Once the kids were fully equipped, the staff guided all of us to the rock gym area, which was very spacious with numerous options, obstacles, and challenges. Their staff went over the specifics of each rock wall, how to secure the harness, safety features, what to do, and how to have fun. We were in great hands and I appreciate how inviting they were to the kids to try out any wall with their help. We loved every moment and our kids made many memories.

Bouldering is a great workout and a good time to be shared with friends and family. The monthly family rate is a good value as long as you use the gym at least 6 times a month. The staff is helpful with instruction and safety. I would recommend this for anyone looking to get into rock climbing &/or bouldering. Even to just have a good time getting a great workout in.

This is the best moderate alpine rock route in Washington…read more It's in what is probably the most beautiful natural area of Washington. So, why is it not more well-known? More often climbed? It's in the Enchantments, with a long approach. This is a permit-only area and it's infamously hard to get permits. The granite is incredible, the mountain goats plentiful. Put in for a permit, cross your fingers, and have fun!

A friend and I did the Haute Route with NMS in April 2017. The communication from Olivia and John…read morewas timely and thorough from the very start. I received all the info. I needed to prepare for the trip. They are guides though so if responses seem delayed, they're in the field but, always responded. Be patient. Our guides on the trip were Pete and Joey. They were amazing and worked very hard to ensure a safe and fun trip. The communication from them was awesome. I personally had the skills & experience for this trip but watching them teach and transform the rest of our team was a joy to watch. I my self had some takeaways that I will use in the back country the rest of my life. Thinking about the Haute Route? Do it with Northwest Mountain School. Thanks Olivia and John! Cheers!

The sandy trails and beach area south of Frenchman coulee have historically supported nude…read morerecreation since the early 2000s to May of 2025 when a nudity ban was implemented by Grant County PUD. Because it has had such a loyal consistent following over the years and holds many advantages over crowded shaded Portland area nude beaches, it's a popular spring and early summer destination for sun bathers looking to get away from the clouds and rain of Seattle/Portland etc. It's breath taking desert backdrop and unparalled scenic beauty rival any other beach along the Columbia River. It's also close to rock climbing, the Sage Cliff Restaurant at Quincy and ample free camping and hiking available in the nearby bluffs on the way down to the beach from I 90. There are well maintained vault toilets and endless swimming along the Columbia River which is clean and toxin free here, as it is upstream away from the Hanford Nuclear Site closer to Richland to the south. Personally, despite occasional patrol, I think people are still going to discreetly get naked here. I would recommend a bathing suit or at least a G string or thong for people feeling adventurous. No need to get cited or trespassed. It's such a magical place and you could practically live there outside in a Van or tent from April to late October. Highly recommend. I car camp in my SUV and it's superb. Wonderful atmosphere. Take lots of food and water if you stay a few days. It gets well over 100 degrees in June July and August.

It's such a friendly atmosphere, the staff are very kind and welcoming and pretty much anyone is happy to chat. Everyone is working on their projects and the atmosphere is very chill. There's lots of very easy and accessible climbs, anyone who can climb a ladder will find something here. Most of the climbs are VB-V7 and there's a few higher than that. Every week there's new routes and they're all super fun. Prices are very reasonable and accessible considering its downtown location and size. Highly recommend for both climbers and climbing-curious people!

I had a great time at Lazy F Camp this past weekend going along with a mushroom foraging club. The…read moreconditions were just right to make it feel like a real summercamp and so the facilities are rustic, though there is a small wifi and outlets. Tucked away near the Manastash river, it's got great views and such chill vibes. The reason I gave it five stars was because the cafeteria staff was incredibly accommodating for diverse diets, not to mention the food was fantastic. Being vegan, going to something like this is generally a miss but they delivered and I was going back for seconds. The only improvement they'd need to make would be adding some other proteins, like tempeh or tofu, for that truly bomb curry we had. A+ and we will be back.

Of course my first few years were accompanied by my parents who were working or attending the summer camps. As soon as I was "of age" I started going as a camper. Going to Lazy F was something I looked forward to every year. The grounds are well kept and beautiful. The cabins and food lodge are all clean and well maintained. Nearly every person I've ever encountered working there is professional but still fun oriented. There are a few different places to hike, and a pond to fish in (though I hear it may have over flown since I've been there so I am not entirely sure what type of situation that is). There are some beautiful big open fields for activities. And every time I've been there I've seen deer and other wild life at LEAST once. Even in the winter it's beautiful with a great hill for inner-tubing down. It is a great place to make memories that will last for a lifetime.
