We learned so much in this one day course! Laurie is thorough and patient. She did not get derailed from all of our questions. I learned more than I expected I would today. I will look forward to more courses with Laurie throughout my climbing practice.

Chris was the best! We had so much fun- first leads and some classic longer pitches following. Chris knows the crag inside and out so for our needs and stayed in the shade. Highly recommend Mooney for your trip to Rumney!

My guide Chris O'Connell is extremely knowledgable, knew exactly how to deal with inclement weather, tailored my climbing perfectly to my abilities and provided awesome tidbits I hadn't heard anywhere else. Can't wait to go again.

Chris exceeded all our expectations for our ice climbing day. Such a great guy full of character and experience! You could tell Chris is passionate about ice climbing and was excited to share it. Loved learning everything he had to offer for skills and information. Thank you MMG for an awesome intro to ice climbing day!

Chris was so awesome!! Really appreciated him tailoring the experience to our goals, including showing us equipment and terrain that are not “standard” vertical ice climbing but much more relevant to what we are training for. He was super knowledgeable and hilarious. We loved climbing with him.

My friend and I climbed/mountaineered Mt. Washington with our Guide Laurie Watts and a junior Guide, Toni. Laurie and Toni helped us to feel safe every single step of the way and provided encouragement when my energy level allowed doubt about being able to reach the summit creep in. Laurie entertained us with stories from her many years in the outdoors and also took every opportunity to teach us about the mountain and nature while also instilling in us a respect for the outdoors and Mt. Washington. I would highly recommend Laurie for any trip or activity!!
