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!
Really amazing experience. We're East Coast climbers with decent knowledge, wanted guide support for doing trad routes and learning about crack climbing. Knowledgeable, thoughtful guides who took us to some amazing locations (Needles in Custer State Park; Devil's Tower in Wyoming). They identified challenging but not impossible routes, gave us support when asked, and had impeccable safety practices throughout. Brandon was very responsive in the planning and logistics leading up to our climbing days. Would be thrilled to work with them again and hope to return to the area sometime.
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.
