Great guide and experience! Learned how to belay and tie a figure eight knot, got to climb up a few cracks and see a view. Thanks

Madison was fantastic. We are big climbers but yet to get into the outdoor climbing world properly and Madison gave us some lifelong skills while also giving us as much opportunity as possible to do some climbing. I did my first outdoor climb and first slab in the same go. Couldn't recommend more.

Our guide was just awesome. There were 3 in our group, one of which was more advanced. Our guide was able to to challenge all of us at our different skill levels. Would book again - if only we didn't live out of province.

Cory was our instructor for the 2 day outdoor rock climbing course and he was an incredible teacher! I highly recommend going with Cory if you are new to the sport, like I am, or want to push your skills to a new level. His extensive experience, teaching abilities, and priority on safety will give you a great foundation. I really appreciated how Cory would point out risks that would have caught me off guard. He absolutely goes above and beyond.

Maya was a wonderful guide who provided a fun, safe, and challenging experience on the mountain. We are fairly strong but short in recent experience and Maya was able to read our capabilities and interests to provide the very best of experience that we will always enjoy looking back to. Thanks so much!!!

Had an amazing time at the half-day rock climbing taster and 100% recommend for anyone looking to try outdoor climbing! Our guide Ivan was super knowledgeable and created an environment where we could push ourselves and yet be supported. Thank you to Ivan for going above and beyond expectations!
