Join local outfitter, Sylvan Rocks, for a full day of advanced rock climbing. Although it is called an advanced class, this climbing trip is appropriate for all skill levels as long as you can climb all day. This custom trip operates at a 3:1 ratio, ensuring customized route selection for the group. The small groups will be determined by skill level. On this trip, you can expect to learn how to lead belay, learn about traditional climbing equipment, reach the summit of a formation (likely more than one summit), and climb numerous routes. You will also be taught how to rappel off the summit of a formation (with a backup). This trip is perfect for individuals who want to increase their climbing knowledge and explore more unique climbing in the Black Hills. This trip will take place from Sylvan Lake, but will use customized routes that are different from the beginner class based on the ability of the group. You will climb the remainder of the day and return to the parking lot around 2:00 pm.
