About me

Kira hails from Germantown, Maryland, and has been climbing for eight years. She began climbing in the humid and sticky summer in the Red River Gorge in Kentucky. Some of the best places that’s she’s had the blessing of climbing in are Indian Creek, UT, Joshua Tree, CA, Bishop, CA, and Squamish, BC. When she’s not out on the rock, she enjoys reading, doing the crossword, hacky-sacking, and planning elaborate trips to see her friends in which she will volunteer to do the brunt of the communal dishes.

Trip: Private Guiding

With Kira S. on July 17, 2026

Company: Seneca Rocks Climbing School

Kira was wonderful - a natural guide and teacher. As a very experienced, but out of shape older climber, I was amazed at all the safety details and new knots and equipment that I didn't know about and got to learn. Kira pushed my climbing limits, which is just what I wanted and we got to do a lot of classic routes. Overall, Seneca Rocks Climbing School, was great to work with and will definitely use them again.
