Wait, what?

What kind of gym charges separately for bouldering versus roped climbing? Aside from the gear rental fees, of course.

I don't know about seperately -- but what I've often seen is one price for climbing (including bouldering) and a lower price for bouldering only.

Ah, perhaps I misunderstood his question. I interpreted him to be taking exception to the scenario you described. I have never seen anyone charging for roped climbing and not including bouldering.

Both the gym I used to work at in California and the gym I own in Colorado do that. The way I look at is, why should the person bouldering only pay for the wear and tear on the ropes plus the extra setting. it takes twice as much work to set a roped route as opposed to a boulder problem. I see it as cutting them a break for using less.

Edit to add:We call them "All Access" and "Boulder only" passes.
