Shawn did a wonderful job giving my son and I a tour around the outskirts of the Wasatch mountains. There was some bad weather forecasted for our trip and Shawn made some slight changes yet still provided us a beautiful trip we will not forget. It seemed like we were given a tour from a friend so we felt completely comfortable. Highly recommend!!
