Everyone was very friendly and knowledgeable. It was my first time rock climbing and my guide Sean was patient. I was able to climb six times. The views were great.

Jeff took me and my best friend out in the Black Hills in South Dakota, and we absolutely loved it! Felt safe, secure, learned a lot, and had a blast. Thanks, Sylvan Rocks!
