My 12-year-old daughter and I did the 2-day devils tower blast trip, and we had an amazing time!! I had climbed Custer state park and Devils Tower multiple times, and this was the best time out yet! Our guide, Doug, was informative, encouraging, and an awesome person! Our day on the tower was perfect with Doug leading the way! I loved the setup, the information, the safety, and now my daughter and I have a memory that will last a lifetime!!! We can’t wait for our next trip!
This is my review of the second time climbing with Sylvan Rocks. As was with our first trip safety was a huge priority. We went to the Palisades State Park in eastern South Dakota. Jeff was our guide there, and he is truly an outstanding instructor for beginning climbers like my son and I. He definitely made it easy to gain confidence and try harder routes. If you’re looking for something fun and exciting to do on a South Dakota vacation you have found it. If you’re like my son and I and you’ve got the bug to get a little more serious about rock climbing these guys are excellent instructors, and will get you on the way to achieving your goals. Thanks to everyone at Sylvan Rocks Hope to be back doing it again soon.
Sylvan Rocks is awesome! When they say "Do something you never imagined you could!" on the website, they mean it! The single pitch AMGA guides Ryan and Ben were fantastic and I was able to summit multiple routes on my first attempt ever at climbing outdoors. I cannot recommend the climbing school enough as a fantastic addition to any trip to the Black Hills.
