Chris Spellmeyer and Shankar found the perfect balance of challenging and encouraging us. The instruction was excellent. The trip was very well organized and the selection of climbs just right for our group. We really appreciated the team's sense of humor and comfortable guidance. The gear was top notch and we wasted no time in transit- we were climbing from start to finish.
Just finished our fourth trip out with Sylvan Rocks. They planted the climbing bug in my son in 2014, and we have climbed with them every chance we got. Each time, their guides -- looking at you Shankar -- upped our climbing game with thoughtfully planned climbing expeditions that were fun and challenging. These guys will take you to unbelievable places, and will do it safely and professionally.
Our guide Ryan was the best at assessing our skill level and very patient with us as we learned how to rock climb. My wife and I had no prior experience, and we were surprised by the end of the session at how much we accomplished in just 6 hours. We were able to climb some awesome cliffs with amazing views from the top. We felt very safe as well, as Ryan triple checked our safety harnesses/devices and kept a very close eye on us. Overall, amazing and unique experience…I would do it again if I was in the area.
