Black Hills Rock Climbing Adventures

5 stars

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.

I reached out to Sylvan Rocks about attempting an ascent of Devil's Tower - and they were amazing! I fully recommend them to anyone interested in the Tower, in climbing at Custer State Park, or climbing on Mt. Rushmore itself. My guide for the week was Doug, and I can't recommend him enough. I have significant experience as a climber, and Doug was both respectful of my experience, and informative about how and why he was doing everything. We had a great three days of climbing - two days of warm-up and prep, and then a full-day of climbing on Devil's Tower itself. I got a ton of climbing in, and had an amazing time! I absolutely hope to come back again soon!

Wife and I did a 6 hour with Brandon. We’d both climbed indoors a bunch, but we’d never done the real thing. We managed to hit 4 very different routes by Sylvan Lake. Brandon was knowledgeable, safe, and generally a great time. I loved every minute of it.
