Tyler Rock Gym, Tyler

David Orchard and Shawn Wilson founded Tyler Rock Gym out of a passion for climbing and an urgency to share it with East Texas. They host over 10,000 square feet of climbing space, texture their facility with brightly colored handles on walls of all angles for fun can challenging scales. And, because they know the value that climbing can give to a kid's physical and mental development, they run a children's camp to impart the fundamentals of climbing and key safety skills.
