Dawson and Luke were exceptional leaders. They were patient and encouraging without being pushy. They adapted each climb to each kid so all were continually challenged.

Nick will make sure you’re safe, comfortable, and challenged if you want to be. My two days with Nick motivated me to make climbing a large part of my every-day life. He’s a class act.
