I would definitely recommend Sylvan Rocks. Our guide, Doug, was very patience with a couple of rookies. My son is very shy and doesn’t talk to people he doesn’t know but he was so comfortable with Doug he chatted all day with him. The views at Sylvan Lake were amazing. We will be back!
My best friend and I are novice climbers from Tennessee, and we wanted to climb Devils Tower. Jeff took us through a great introductory course at Custer State Park, and slowly built us up. The next day, we were able to summit the tower. Jeff is incredibly knowledgeable, safe, and fun to be around. As you can imagine, this climb is a stressful event, but Jeff kept us motivated. I could not recommend Sylvan Rocks more. Fantastic experience. I will likely be back with my family again.
Our family of four (kids 13 and 11) had a fantastic time climbing with Sylvan Rocks! It has been the highlight of our trip and an experience none of us will ever forget. The co-owner, Jeff, was very friendly and flexible with our somewhat last minute booking. He was patient during the booking process when my phone kept losing service in the area and I had to call him back 3 times! My kids have done some indoor climbing but, other than that, no climbing experience. Our guide, Cheyenne, was very encouraging and was able to tailor the climbs to each climber’s comfort level. He was very attentive to safety, and I felt comfortable that we were safe at all times, while still being able to try routes that were challenging for us. I would recommend this experience to anyone. Don’t miss out on a fantastic experience...one that you will not forget. And who knows, may lead to a new passion!
