Sylvan Rocks Climbing School is fantastic! They worked great with the Girl Scouts in our group (11-12nyear old's) and were very patient with the adults! We had a fun experience and learned a lot. A number of the girls are looking to continue rock climbing in the future because of the positive experience during our session.
Really amazing experience. We're East Coast climbers with decent knowledge, wanted guide support for doing trad routes and learning about crack climbing. Knowledgeable, thoughtful guides who took us to some amazing locations (Needles in Custer State Park; Devil's Tower in Wyoming). They identified challenging but not impossible routes, gave us support when asked, and had impeccable safety practices throughout. Brandon was very responsive in the planning and logistics leading up to our climbing days. Would be thrilled to work with them again and hope to return to the area sometime.
Our first "outdoor" climbing adventure - Custer State Park in the Black Hills. Brandon matched us to routes that were challenging but not so difficult we couldn't finish. His knowledge of the sport and the area are second to none. We summited 4 routes - and I was even able to "try" a 5th route graded at 5.11 a/b that was awesome. We are planning on returning next summer - hopefully with a few friends from our indoor gym. Haven and I recommend Sylvan Rocks without question!
