Out of respect for the Native American summer solstice celebration, Sylvan Rocks honors the voluntary climbing ban and will not guide at Devil's Tower National Monument for the entire month of June.

It must be understood that after climbing with your guide for a day, if he or she determines that a summit attmpt on Devils Tower with you does not have a high probability of succes, then you will have the choice of climbing a second day around the base of the Tower or driving over to the Needles of Custer State Park (2 hours away in the Black Hills) to enjoy some multipitch climibng there.   We schedule Devils Tower Summit trips in 2 day courses to offer the greatest amount of safety for our guides and guest.  That way everyone knows what and how things wil happen when we meet up way before the crack of dawn to get started climbing.  4:30 am at the base of Devils Tower is no time to discover that everyone is not on the same page when it comes to belaying, dealing with climbing gear, heights, and multi pitch climibng systems.

  

 

Needles Classics Tour 1-2+ days

Rock climbing in the Black Hills is an adventure.  A Sylvan Rocks guide can really take the stress out of climbing in the Needles. You have heard about the many great routes in Custer State Park, and maybe they are beyond your comfort level on the sharp end. This is a great way to climb them with out getting the ba-JEE-beez scared out of you. We know where the classic routes are and how to get you to the summits. (Due to the nature of Needles climbing, there are some routes we will not guide due to the danger factor.)
