perhaps a location might help. It's hard to recommend a guide if I don't know what part of the country you are in.

A region of the country is certainly helpful, but you generally can't go wrong with a guide certified by the American Mountain Guides Association. You can find information about hiring a guide here:

You can find lists of all AMGA guides here:

You can find a list of guides who hold the Single Pitch Instructor Certification (likely the minimum certification they need for what you want to do) here:
