Murf was an incredible guide. He made it fun, exciting but also taught us a tremendous amount. He helped us get over our fear of crack climbing and gave us the confidence to push a bit harder. I can’t recommend Murf enough!

Guide: Taylor O., Ryan M.
Our family had a great experience with Mojave Guides (Ryan and Taylor)! They formulated a personalized plan for our family based on our abilities/goals. They also found a few different climbing routes on a shaded rock face to give options for our 4 hr session and keep us all climbing. They gave good instructions and were great with kids. The morning flew by because we were all having a blast. If we are ever back in Joshua Tree, we will certainly schedule another climb session with them. Thank you, Ryan and Taylor!!

Superb! Murphy was the perfect introduction to wild Joshua Tree, the land of little rain! As requested he showed us off the beaten track, moderate hiking that we truly enjoyed.

Amazing experience rock climbing. It was easy to coordinate. Our guide Taylor was the absolute best. He had all the gear for me and my daughter. Was so fun and patient. He made my daughter’s first outdoor climbing experience unforgettable. She had fun and he was so good with children. We will be coming back.

Guide: Taylor O.
We had an awesome 1/2 day of climbs with Taylor. We got to climb a nice variety of routes. Taylor is very knowledgeable about the park, and was able to set a bunch of top rope routes for us. Definitely got in the most amount of climbs my hands could possibly take in 4hrs.

Ryan guided our four nieces 16-13, on three climbs. Increasing in challenge as the day went on. His patience, and calm and encouraging tone went a long way toward making climbers out of all four. They had a ball.
