Hi budding climbers, my name is Mick Dempsey & I am the owner and head instructor of Margaret River Climbing Co. It has been my dream to have my own climbing guiding business since I started climbing at the ripe old age of 11. The dream is now a reality, and it is now my pleasure to pass on many years of experience & knowledge to you.

Rockclimbing is my passion and has been now for over 22 years.  I still climb at least twice a week recreationally while instructing full time - I sometimes refer to climbing as my sickness. I have climbed all over the place utilising many different styles & have extensive technical roping knowledge. My favourite climbing areas are Mt. Arapiles in Victoria and Moonarie in the Flinders Rangers South Australia. I  believe that Australian climbing is second to none, although I really want to go crack climbing in Indian Creek Utah. That might be the best ever!
