The hike was beautiful, but the weather was unseasonably warm for such a hike (mid March). Will be back in the wintertime months, for sure. Our guide was very personable and knowledgeable and made the whole experience very enjoyable.
The weather has taken us all by surprise this year. We'd love to explore a new trail with you next winter. Thanks for leaving a review!
Breathtaking views and guide Danny was knowledgeable, enthusiastic and professional. I wouldn't hesitate to take this moderately challenging hike again with an experienced guide.
Guided hiking is an awesome option to learn more about the local area, we're glad to hear you had a good experience!
