Custom Experiences:
Rock and Alpine Climbing Locations
These are some of my favorite areas where we can work together to pursue your climbing goals and aspirations. I'm employed through various guide services whom are authorized permittees of the locations listed below. Contact me to create a custom climbing experience.
Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado
Alpine climbing at its finest - The Diamond of Long's Peak stands out as a crowning climbing achievement for the veteran climber. But don't stop there, the Petit Grepon is one of the country's most unique summits.
The Pacific Northwest, Washington
From sea to summit - the pacific northwest is a playground of glaciers and peaks rising with impressive vertical gain. Classic climbs such as Mt. Baker, Mt. Shuksan, or Mt. Forbidden will leave you feeling satisfied for longer than your typical summit.
Eldorado Canyon State Park, Colorado
Rich in climbing history, Eldo offers a variety of climbing styles from crack to face. Hone your trad rock craft on the single pitch routes or get high off the deck on any of the long multi-pitch classics.
Red Rock Canyon, Nevada
Climbing in the Mojave desert is a treat in itself with stunning desert details if you choose to notice them. The variety of climbing is unrivaled in Red Rock Conservation Area - with classic V hard bouldering, to spectacular sport crags and multi-pitch climbs for anyone.
Moab Area and Indian Creek, Utah
Sandcastle summits and splitter cracks. What's more to say than the truly unique experiences of the Colorado Plateau.
The Flatirons, Colorado
Icons of the City of Boulder, the Flatirons stand proud over town. A vast juxtaposition in the climbing styles - either pursue the many classic low angle multi-pitch slab routes on the east facing aspects, or if multi-pitch slab isn't your forte dangle from your finger tips on the steep gymnastic west faces.

Rifle Mountain Park, Colorado
Many climbers believe this to only be the playground of the truly elite. Don't tell anyone - but there are routes from 5.6 - 5.10 that will satisfy any moderate sport climber.
