I have climbed with Sylvan Rocks 3 years in a row now and have loved it every time. The guides are professional, personable, and do a great job of encouraging everyone to make the most out of their experience. The past 2 years they have also helped create cool experiences for my kids ages 6, 9, and 11. Thank you!!

GREAT climbing experience for the beginners in our group! Reservation process is incredibly smooth, check-in the day of was super slick, and the climbing was amazing. There was enough variety for the variety of climbers in our group. Lots of learning and encouragement. Thanks to Jeff, Ross, and Ryan!
