ABOUT

The Campus was founded in 2024 by Claire Gordon. 
Claire has been climbing since 2004. She began climbing in a small basement gym in Chicago IL and traveled the world competing in the US, France and Germany. 

She moved to Boulder in 2019 after 5 years of coaching in Portland, OR. 

As an elite climber herself and a coach, Claire noticed there was a need for a space dedicated to training at a high level in Boulder. So many athletes were out climbing the gyms in the area, left with only the boards to project so there was a clear need for harder route setting. Additionally, when athletes were attempting to do a training drill it was often taking up too much space for the member base. 

Claire and her partner Eric build this gym from the ground up doing most of the work themselves to create their dream space that allows athletes to push themselves.
