Brandon was awesome! I am 57, overweight and have a fear of heights but he encouraged me to make it to the top every time! Even if you cant do one pull up you can rock climb. I am proof.

I did an 8 hr climbing day with Shankar and it was wonderful! We talked before-hand about my skill level and what I was hoping for on our climbing day. Shankar picked out some fun multi-pitch climbs for me at the Cathedral Spires. I have some years experience in rock climbing so I wasn't looking for an instructional day. Shankar started me right out on a classic climb up one spire and then we climbed 2 other spires that day. We climbed one spire twice when I expressed an interest in a more challenging route right next to the classic route we climbed first. I'd climb with Shankar and Sylvan Rocks again any day.
Climbing with Jeff was the perfect experience for my wife and I. We learned a ton about climbing and the Black Hills, and of course we got to climb some great rock and see amazing views. I would recommend Sylvan Rocks to anyone—experienced climber or beginner.
