What People Think of Forged Guides

  • We had a great time with Mason! He was friendly and patient with me and my 10-year-old son since we were beginner climbers. He did a great job choosing routes that were fun and just challenging enough for us. He was very safety-conscious and we always felt we were in good hands. Signing up on the website was also very easy to do and clear. I highly recommend for a great value and fun experience.
