I did a 6-hour climbing day with Jeff and it was amazing! We started on second breakfast route which was intimidating but Jeff did a great job walking me through everything and encouraging me on the way up! Experience was incredible and totally worth hiking through the snow :).
It was the best 3 days in the past year !!!! Thank you Sylvan Rocks Climbing for fantastic experience!!!! I don't remember how I signed up for the Devils Tower climb 😂😂😂 but I am soooooo grateful to start my rock climbing journey with you guys!!!! My guide Doug is extremely interesting and kind person, has a lot of stories and knowledge about the region, is a professional plus a pretty good photographer 😉 When your guide keeps you smile all the way to the top it means a lot!!! Doug did everything to make me fall in love with rock climbing !!!! The Black Hills will always have special place in my heart ❤️!!!
My 8 year old daughter and I had never been climbing before and we’re looking for a fun challenge. I was a little apprehensive about this because I wanted to help my daughter overcome her fear of heights and also have a good time. The whole experience was first class from start to finish. Jeff, the co-owner, was friendly, easy to get ahold of, patiently answered my many questions, and was even flexible with a last minute schedule change. He was also great with kids! Ryan and Chris were our guides over two days and both went above and beyond to make sure we had a good experience. Every step of the way, they thoroughly followed safety precautions which made our first time climbing much more enjoyable. They also were great with kids and pleasant to work with. It was rewarding as a parent to see our child build confidence! All in all, our first experience was excellent and my daughter and I have now found a new hobby we can enjoy together. I would highly recommend Sylvan Rocks Climbing to any parent looking to enjoy the outdoors with their kids or anyone looking for a new challenge. Thank you Sylvan for a great time!
