About Us

Bighorn Mountain Guides’ goal is to provide exceptional guided experiences in the Bighorn Mountains through intimate local knowledge and technical expertise. We specialize in private guided rock climbing trips for families, individuals and groups, and small, private backpacking trips. All of our guides are trained and certified for the terrain they operate in.
