Climbing the tower was one thing I've wanted to do for a long time but couldn't seem to find the time. Finally, just called and made the decision. Shankar was my guide, and he made the whole experience happen. He knows how to coach and teach rock craft. Really had a great trip. Hope to do some more climbing again.
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.
Sylvan Rocks Climbing School is fantastic! They worked great with the Girl Scouts in our group (11-12nyear old's) and were very patient with the adults! We had a fun experience and learned a lot. A number of the girls are looking to continue rock climbing in the future because of the positive experience during our session.
