Guides can cost from anywhere from 100 bucks to thousands of dollars depending on what style of climbing. If you hire a guide to take you out to a local crag and learn basic rope skills and, you know, do a day of climbing, it's going to be probably 100 dollars. If you hire a guy, you know, to take you up Mt Everest, it's going to cost you 70, 000 dollars. So it totally depends on if you are looking at it from, a basic point of view or if you going on an expedition. Skills classes are probably going to cost more than just a day of climbing because the guys at that point of time are probably more engaged. There is going to be a lot more equipment used at that point.
