“Chad was incredibly helpful, patient, and upbeat during our session. We learned a ton of invaluable info in a way that was super accessible thanks to Chad.
We told him our goals (climbing sport routes outside) and he helped us achieve those goals in our course, in addition to recommending a wonderful beginner crag at Mt. Charleston (Nueva Esperanza).
The day after our final session, we passed the lead cert with flying colors and two days later we were successfully and safely climbing at Nueva.
This felt like such an achievement for my girlfriend and I and we couldn’t have done it without Chad. I will probably be taking another course and requesting Chad in the future, as well as recommending him to our friends.” – Lucas Murray
