Testimonials for Mountain Skills Rock Climbing

"Mountain Skills rock climbing school is fantastic! For 8 years they have provided us with exceptional organization and service and wonderful guides. They always make sure everyone feels comfortable and challenged from the novice who has never climbed before to the expert climber. Our day with them is always a favorite among the SMU students!"

I just wanted to let you guys at the school know that my kids and I had a great time. David was a wonderful instructor, and I really appreciate his patient and professional approach to teaching a very serious subject to my two overly enthusiastic children. My kids came away with a healthy respect for a challenging sport and confidence that they can do more than they ever thought possible. Also, this was the coolest thing I have done on my birthday in many, many, years. Please convey my sincere appreciation to David once again.

Dear friends at Mountain Skills,

I wish you could hear the excitement in the voices of our Cross Training campers when they return from an afternoon of rock-climbing adventure! As they relate the experience to their peers, they are so proud of the challenges they faced. Every year as we plan for our camp activities, we know that the campers who go rock-climbing with your Moutain Skills staff will build confidence, have a great time, and learn a lot about safety and supporting each other. Our campers are always very complimentary of your staff and the way they both challenge and encourage. What an awesome group of professionals you are! Thank you...we'll be back again next year!

"It was the most exciting thing I’ve ever done" Mercedes
"You guys are great. It wouldn’t have been camp without you" Lacie

"Olivia and I had a great time climbing. She still talks about her adventure with you guys on real rock. What a memory for a 10 year old kid! Next time we’re in the area, we will come climb again." Hans

"I have just had three fantastic days being shown around by Jay Foley of the Mountain Skills Rock Guides. We got in some great climbs and I was able to see the huge potential for climbing around Taos, visiting Tres Piedras, Comales Canyon and finally the legs on Questa Dome. The top pitch of the Five Eight Variant was pure magic, dramatis, steep and yet with superb holds. Many thanks to Jay and Dennis for showing me around, pointing me at climbs that I could manage to lead, and most of all to their excellant company. You have some truly beautiful climbing.
