Description
Rock climbing is much more than the Cliffhanger stereotype of doing pull-ups with your fingertips. Like skiing untracked powder, climbing is both an artistic dance and a demonstration of musculature. Finesse meets power with the hopes of reaching the top.
From beginners touching rock for the first time to advanced climbers seeking expert instruction, experience rock climbing in the mountains of Summit County. We offer half- and full-day, single- and multi-pitch guided sessions for all ability levels. Individuals, couples, groups, and families with children are all welcome to hire a guide for a private adventure within a twenty minute drive from our office in Silverthorne. At no additional cost we provide all climbing specific gear, including helmets, harnesses and shoes.
Join Colorado Adventure Guides this summer to take your rock climbing skills to the next level or simply try top-roping for the first time. Providing a safe, educational, and fun day on the rocks is our mission. Our professionally-certified guides are experienced with the local climbing zones and can choose the best wall for a given group.
