Extremely poor ethical integrity and customer relations. I am a 30 Prescott resident and small…read morebusiness owner. I was gifted a 3 month membership at Gripstone over 1 year ago. Shortly thereafter the person (an X) who bought that for me, refuted the charge with their credit card company resulting in no payment to Gripstone. I was never alerted of this of this until 3 weeks ago when I attempted to purchase my own new membership. I was told I had to reimburse Gripstone for the year old failed payment by someone else before I could get a new one. I agreed to pay for both the old payment and my new one being advised I could negotiate a refund and so I assumed a reasonable settlement would result. Boy was I wrong. Gripstone was unwilling to reimburse me for the year old payment I never incurred. I have a disgust for this business and its management. They're short sighted approach and self interest has cost them years of patronage by me, likely thousands of dollars, and all so they could recoup $240. Had they chosen to reimburse me for charges I never originally incurred they would receive my future business for years to come, but now I I will never set foot in there again and warn others.

We hiked a loop trail of the Willow trail (#347), the Mint Wash trail (#345) and 351, parking at the Wekuvde picnic area. On a Monday in September we only saw three other people on the trail until we came to Granite Basin Lake where there was one large group and a couple small groups picnicking. The Willow trail is beautiful, traversing gentle up and down areas of pine woodlands with 180 degree views west, north and east and has partial shade. The post monsoon wildflowers were in full bloom. The route back along Mint Wash was also lovely with 5 or 6 creek crossings, boulders, flowers and Granite Mountain views.

Found Beta Bouldering Gym on yelp and gave it a try. Good variety of difficulties. Pink tape being the easiest, white, yellow, green, etc. Might have been the altitude but I struggled with V2-3 climbing which is usually very doable for me. Alas I never managed to send a green tape climb. I got close on a few routes but never managed to top out. I liked the variety of holds and surfaces slab, under hang cave and everything in between. Price was reasonable, $20 tax included for a day pass. I'll try it again the next time I am in flagstaff.
