Class Reviews
After taking the trad class, I hired Mark again for a guided half-day. Honestly, I should say that in both instances I got a lot more than I paid for or could have expected.

Trad class: following several hours of terrific instruction in placing gear and practice trad leads (on top-rope), Mark taught my class about anchor building. He saw the need, listened to the students in my class, and took the time to teach us something that we would clearly need to know.
