This is a must do experience in Custer State Park. They are great people and excellent rock climbing instructors. We felt very safe and confident throughout the 2 days we went with Sylvan Rocks and will be returning to climb again. Thank you for the great experience. I thoroughly enjoyed watching my son build confidence and skill.
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.
Great folks here at Sylvan Rocks! I had an 8 hr guided adventure booked with them. Unfortunately ‘twas the morn’ of our adventure and the rain was a-threatenin’. My heart took a dive as I reckoned we weren’t gonna make it to the Spires of Cathedral. Brief was the pain though, as my guide, Shankar, lead us up to some of the most stunning views atop Sylvan Lake! It was my first multi-pitch climb and Shankar instilled confidence by remaining cool and calm. I’ll always remember his words “slow is smooth; smooth is efficient “. Thanks Sylvan Rocks and Shankar! 🤙🏼.
