TESTIMONIALS
"I took one of your climbing course at Seneca over the weekend that just
passed and was thrilled with the overall quality of the course. Our guide, Josh,
was great at teaching us all that we wanted to know and answering all of our
questions. He has great interpersonal skills and managed to make us all
feel very comfortable and gain a lot of confidence in our climbing
abilities. He truly made the difference in all of us having an amazing
experience that will hopefully carry over in our future climbing. I have
been thinking for a while about taking a lead climbing course. There is now no
doubt in my mind that I will do that probably towards the end of the summer
and that your school, and Josh, will be my choice for this course. Thanks
for putting together such a great staff. Everybody was very helpful and
enthusiastic. I will definitely recommend your school to some of my friends.
Hope you're having fun guiding and climbing!"

"I wanted to thank you guys for a great time. I know that at the end of three days
together we just kind of said see ya. Well, when i got home i felt like there should
have been more said. So im gonna say somthing now. I just want you to know that you have
made a life changing impact on my life. Those three days turned out to be
some of the most memorible days of my life, and thats because of you two...
Thanks again for a great time."

"I do appreciate the break you have extended us...I have guaranteed them the
experience and accomplishment of a lifetime. If their experience is half as
good as ours was it will be an overwhelming success. I look forward to
seeing you and your operation again. My son, Dan, has been forever touched
by our Spring outing and hopes to work for you next summer perhaps. His
Eagle Scout project is to build a bouldering wall for one of the local scout
camps here in Fauquier County.
Thanks again
Regards"

"I wasn't expecting the larger numbers either. Word go out about having you
available once again and several additional trip leaders signed up. Your
style and excellence of our previous training with you is highly regarded and the
word has spread."
