More info

The date

The Hive North Shore is the big one: 22,000 square feet of bouldering reset every single week, so you cannot memorize your way to looking cool. There is even a yoga studio for whoever needs a moment while the other keeps hurling themselves at one stubborn overhang. Rent shoes, start easy, and plan a Deep Cove snack run after. Bring layers, you'll be sweaty then cold.

How to do it

Rent shoes at the desk, warm up on the easy circuits, and take turns projecting one stubborn overhang while the other calls beta (or peels off to the yoga studio). Wear layers; you'll go in sweaty and come out cold. Budget around two hours of failing gracelessly, then chase the send with a Deep Cove or Lower Lonsdale snack run nearby.

What to wear: casual is fine
