Just climb!

"The Try Rock Climbing was a brilliant amazing exhilarating experience for my 14 year old daughter. Xiaoping and his team were extremely polite and professional. As a mother I felt my daughter was in safe hands! Xiaoping gave excellent encouragement and instruction and gave her the confidence so she was able to climb to the top. It was an amazing opportunity. The price was fair and reasonable. We would love to do this again and would strongly recommend it to others." -- Juliet Coe, Burlington, Ontario
" I had never rock climbed in my life. Doing it was a mixture of thrill, challenge, and a sense of accomplishment at the end. I used to think it would be me against the rock. Now I realize it was me against my own challenges..." -- Ericka Cottier, Milton, Ontario
