About Us

We are independent guides who love the mountains and the area around Boulder, Colorado. By remaining smaller in size than most other outdoor companies we feel we have the freedom and ability to provide uniquely rewarding experiences for the people who we take out into the mountains. Because we value the personal relationships we form with our clientele this aspect of our work is supremely important to us and keeps us excited about guiding as a lifelong career. Most of our work is return business, and many of our guests return with us for a trip into the mountains on a regular basis.

Our goal is to inspire and provide meaningful outdoor adventure experiences that teach wilderness skills while providing a fun outdoor experience for everyone.

To achieve this goal we keep our groups small. We consider the impact on the safety and flexibility of the group above all when we decide on a maximum group size. Everyone knows that large groups and large climber-to-guide ratios are what make money for a guide service. But we feel that groups and ratios compromise the safety, enjoyment and success of individual participants. Being small means we are flexible in making last minute changes to your itinerary. Better for you and better for us.

Lastly, we plan your trips with the care that we take with planning our own trips. We treat you to the same experiences we look for ourselves. Rewarding, fun, unique and memorable.
