Custom Private Guiding
I love the climbing in Joshua Tree because it always forces me to think outside the box and move in creative ways. I’m lucky enough to have the national park in my backyard and have a running list of my favorite single and multi-pitch routes of all levels. Come climb spitter cracks, cryptic friction slabs, and full-body chimneys on Joshua Tree’s world famous granite.

Group Climbing
A day of climbing in Joshua Tree can be a meaningful way to bring your team closer together or a unique experience to add to your family memories. I can accommodate groups of total beginners as well as mixed ability and advanced climbers. It’s possible for me to guide groups of up to five on my own; larger groups can be accommodated with another guide.
