Bio: Hey there All. I fell in love with rock climbing in high school and it hasn't stopped. The love affair with climbing that is. Early in college I got the hankering for the winter exploits and explored the ice climbing and mountaineering in New Hampshire's Mount Washington Valley. I settled in North Conway, NH to climb hike ski.....and with the help of some great climbing partners, and mentors, I began guiding in 1994. I took my American Mountain Guides Association level 1 rock guide exam in 1998 which is now rock instructor and became a single pitch instructor course and exam provider that same year. I have guided in S America in Peru and Bolivia, domestically in J-tree and Red Rocks. My home base is the granite cliffs in and around North Conway, New Hampshire. I love teaching and guiding climbing and have plied the trade full time since 1994. It's too late to stop now and I do not want to. It is so exciting to me to turn people on to climbing and all it has to offer our bodies spirits and minds. I hope to climb with you soon! Be Well, Craig Taylor
