点评:Second time climbing with Sylvan Rocks - and just as awesome as the first time. Peter guided me and my friend Jeremy on the Durrance route on Devils Tower. Incredible experience! Peter knows his stuff for sure - and I felt 100% secure from the very start.
The 'grade' listed on the Durrance route is ........ a bit shy of what I would call it. The "Durrance" pitch is tough but super fun, especially for someone that does not do crack climbing. All in all, an incredible experience.
We decided to climb in Custer State Park on our last day in the area - and due to a couple areas being closed for maintenance behind Sylvan Lake - I got turned around and could not find the area I wanted to climb. We packed up, drove the short distance to Custer and talked to the guy behind the counter at the South Dakota Outdoor Shop in Custer - (Can't remember his name!!) - and got straightened out in a short few minutes. He was super knowledgeable - told me where to park, what to look for and which trail to take. We were back out climbing (Waste Knot is worth the hike) in no time.
My Wife and I climbed with Brandon (co-owner of Sylvan Rocks) and now Peter - If you are climbing in the Custer SD or Devils Tower WY areas - absolutely recommend contacting Sylvan Rocks. They are the best. And the South Dakota Outdoor shop in Custer has everything you will need.
翻译:第二次和Sylvan Rocks一起攀岩——和第一次一样棒。Peter带领我和我的朋友Jeremy沿着魔鬼塔的Durrance路线攀岩。真是太棒了!Peter的技术真是一流——从一开始我就感到百分百安全。
Durrance路线上标注的“难度”……比我想象的要低一些。“Durrance”路线难度很高,但非常有趣,尤其是对于不玩裂缝攀岩的人来说。总而言之,这是一次不可思议的经历。
我们决定在卡斯特州立公园的最后一天去攀岩——由于Sylvan湖后面的几个区域正在维护关闭——我绕了个弯,找不到我想攀岩的区域。我们收拾好行李,驱车前往不远处的卡斯特,在卡斯特的南达科他州户外用品商店柜台后面找了个小伙子(我记不起他的名字了!)——几分钟后就搞定了。他非常博学——告诉我在哪里停车、要注意什么以及应该走哪条路。我们很快就又开始爬山了(Waste Knot 值得一去)。
我和妻子之前和 Brandon(Sylvan Rocks 的共同所有人)一起爬,现在和 Peter 一起——如果你在南达科他州卡斯特或怀俄明州魔鬼塔地区攀岩——强烈推荐联系 Sylvan Rocks。他们是最棒的。而且卡斯特的南达科他州户外用品店有你需要的一切。
