Trip: Durango Rock Climbing - Full Day
Guide: Marc R.
I am a beginner rock climber, and Marc is an expert rock climber. Doers are not not necessarily great teachers. Marc is an excellent teacher and provides useful feedback, and inspires one to work to be a better climber. I have climbed with Marc prior and will continue to reach out to him to improve as a climber and person.

Trip: Black Canyon of the Gunnison
Guide: Kam W.
Had a great experience with Kam in Black Canyon of the Gunnison. I was looking to get in a long trad climb while I was in the area; something that would push me a little bit, particularly on climb length. Kam steered us toward just the right climb for the day and was both great company and a super solid climber. I would happily go out with him again and recommend others do so as well!

Trip: Vestal Peak
Guide: Kam W.
Exceptional trip climbing Vestal Peak via Wham Ridge. Kam was extremely knowledgeable, patient and fun to be with. In our opinion, he is the best guide we have ever climbed with. We definitely felt safe during our climb. Given the weather, we couldn't climb the second peak (Arrow). Nevertheless, the trip was very rewarding, substantially due to Kam's effort. Also, scheduling the trip thru San Juan Expeditions was very easy. Rick and the office staff were responsive and accommodating.
