My husband and I were in the Black Hills for vacation and booked 6 hrs of guided climbing at Custer State Park through Sylvan Rocks. We had a great time. Our guide Doug was great. He was really professional and a good teacher, but also really fun. We climbed several routes and everything we did was personalized to us and what we wanted to get out of the session. Can’t recommend enough. We only had indoor climbing experience prior to this, so I would say it was pretty beginner friendly.
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!
Exceeded all expectations. The Devils tower Blitz was a bucket list experience I couldn’t imagine achieving without Sylvan Rocks. Doug Plourde is a true professional. Safety is always first. Education is the next step. The most exciting accomplishment you can have in one weekend!
