Olivia was outstanding. Upon arriving in Lake City, Olivia instilled confidence and explained the technical aspects of ice climbing and how best to approach the ice and how to climb the ice wall. This was an experience I would not want to miss. Adrenaline must have been pumping while I was climbing. As I was off the wall, I was able to see what we accomplished and I was thrilled. Colorado Climbing Company provided the equipment and instruction to make a once in a life time experience. I credit Olivia for the expert training and fantastic feeling of accomplishment.

I had an awesome time learning ice climbing this winter at Lake City with Colorado Climbing Company! Olivia is a great instructor! She's very knowlegible on climbing techniques and she was patient with me on getting the right foot technique! I did the full day class and I got exposed to different ice inclines climbs and learned about gear and tying ropes! Overall it was a fantastic experience and I would love to climb with them again whether it's ice or rocks, or mountiam guides! Note that they provide all needed gear at no extra cost which is great!!

Jeremiah was absolute amazing for my first outdoor experience! I called multiple companies tonsee if anyone had availability for while I would be in Colorado for work. A few took my number and said they need to find a guide (Guess they are just a broker), a few didnt answer. Jeremiah called me within hours of my email while he was on vacation out of the country! So not only does he own the company, but he's the lead climber. Cant even thabk him enough for not just such an amazing time, but the immense learning experience he made it. We didnt just climb, we discussed technique, how to handle gear, and proper etiquette while on the trails. He start you of on a simple climb to warm you up and see your skill set, and begins to step it up. Here I was thinking I would only be doing a few top rope climbs, but took me on a multi-pitch adventure! Being from Florida where we have no hills, I havent stopped bragging to my friends that indoor Climb with me 😂 And the fact that Jeremiah takes the time to get some amazing photos is priceless!!! Already booked my 2nd climb with him while still here for work! Theres people that do their job for the money, he definitely does it for the passion 🙏🏻💯

While road tripping through Colorado I had two opportunities to climb with the Colorado Climbing Company, and both were fantastic experiences. My guides for each adventure, Jeremiah and Spencer, were professional and well prepared, while also being great people to climb with. I learned climbing skills at every opportunity, from lead belay techniques to rappelling, and feel that I could replicate them on my own now. I also got to climb some really fun multi pitch routes, learning both the skills involved in that and how to handle loose/crumbly rock in a controlled environment (something that came in handy later on some solo adventures). For anyone looking to get into rock climbing in the Colorado area, I highly recommend the Colorado Climbing Company to help you get started.

Holy smokes, these guys ROCK ( literally 😆🧗🏽‍♀️🧊) A huge shoutout to Olivia who was my ice climbing guide in Lake City. I am pretty new to ice climbing and I felt like this trip helped me grow tremendously. She was not only a master at all things ice climbing, but was a fantastic teacher. Learning knots, in addition to the art of ice climbing, can be overwhelming but she made it such a blast. We had an 8 hour trip and she somehow managed to keep me pumped the whole time. And as a new climber, she made it such a safe place to learn and ask ALL the questions. I’ve used plenty of guiding services before but these guys are definitely my top choice. Also met Jeremiah, the owner and a lead guide, who happened to be out on the ice with another group. He was very personable and kind, even stopping by to check in on how my trip was going. Super excited to book with them in the future and grow in ice and rock! PS check out their awesome work taking some cool photos that I can cherish forever!
