- Blue4me0 contributionsFantastic Day!!!Ryan was amazing! We were a group of 5 with multiple levels of ex[erience from beginner to intermediate. Ryan was so patient and made the entire experience wonderful, fun, and I can not wait to rock climb and rappel again!Written July 28, 2023
- 237danat0 contributionsAwesome TimeRyan and Jack were amazing. 8 friends that had no experience and we had a blast. Don't miss this trip! great memories madeWritten July 17, 2023
- Loreen P0 contributionsWhy Did We Wait So Long?!?My favorite part was getting to rappel 100' down a rock cliff, twice! What a blast! Ryan was a great instructor and guide. He has a super great personality and tremendous patience. He was born for this! My husband and I did this for our 30th wedding anniversary, and it was our first time rappelling. We are scratching our heads wondering "Why did we wait so long?" I would totally do this again, and can't recommend Ryan and Evergreen Wilderness Guides enough!Written May 3, 2022
- loraw3530 contributionsFantastic guide for a memorable family experience.We did a full day of rock climbing and repelling in Golden, CO with Ryan as our guide from Evergreen Wilderness. It was a fantastic experience we will never forget. We are a family of 3 with a high school daughter and two parents on the far side of the 40's. Ryan was very accommodating to our individual levels of experience and comfort. He was great at explaining the technical side of what he was doing with all the gear so that we knew what was important and that felt safe. The location was beautiful and had many different climbs and repels we could try. Ryan was very personable, patient and professional. He made it clear what we needed to bring. He also was able to provide all the gear we needed. All 3 of us highly recommend Ryan and Evergreen Wilderness.Written October 24, 2021

We all want to come back & bring our entire families & do the full day of rock climbing & rappelling next time! I highly recommend this company & the experience!Written May 15, 2021
- 428saarg0 contributionsHighlight of our Denver trip!This was a perfect way to spend half a day in nature. I was looking for a thrilling experience outside the Denver area and rappelling seemed like a good way to experience nature. My wife and I had both done this before, but my wife still had concerns. Our guide - Ryan - was so calming that those concerns were overcome. We met at the parking lot and hiked for 20 minutes to the rapelling site. We chatted along the way. When we got to the spot, Ryan walked us through the process - first in theory, then with his support and backup, then all on our own! We then transitions to a more adventurous rappelling point, which was thrilling. It was a great experience, one that I would definitely repeat. I would highly recommend Evergreen Wilderness and Ryan!Written May 4, 2021
- Y4557KCcarmenc0 contributionsGreat funMy son and I did this adventure and had a great time. We had never done any rock climbing or repelling before but felt completely comfortable with the guidance we got from Ryan and Jack. They were excellent, friendly and fun. Would totally do this again and have been recommending it to everyone since! Thanks so much guys!!!Written May 3, 2021
- 57christianf0 contributionsThe perfect morning getawayThis was a great way to get out of the city and spend the morning. Especially great for someone who has never rappelled before - the instruction is clear and not too challenging. Mike was our instructor and he had a very calm presence and always emphasized safety. You get some fantastic views and great photos and the experience was totally private -- which is nice to not have to worry about waiting on others or sharing the experience with others you don't know. I would definitely do this again.Written August 3, 2020
- paulyoung16110 contributionsNice Colorado experienceMike and Ryan did an excellent job of making the entire 4 hours pleasant and interesting. My wife is scared of heights and they helped her overcome her fears.Written July 17, 2020

I sent my husband on a half day intro class for a birthday gift. Ryan helped me coordinate the plans, and then was his instructor that day. They were well organized, and my husband really enjoyed working with Ryan. It was challenging and fun, and the spot they went in Golden had fantastic views. We'd book another climb with EWG anytime!

Its pretty clear taking a trip with Evergreen Wilderness Guides that they are doing what they love. Go climbing with Co-Owner Ryan and it will surely be a day you won't forget.
