Amazing Experience and beautiful.

Denise_P, Sep 2025
Chad Peele, my guide was amazing. Everything was explained before we did it and we took everything in stages. It was challenging at times but Chad's calm manor and style put me at ease. The hike itself is beautiful and you are save. On the show wall - it is intense but a great sense of acheivement when you finish. An amazing experience.

We are so glad you enjoyed your hike with Chad and that his calm and thoughtful approach helped make the day such a positive one. The route is certainly a challenge, and it is wonderful to hear how rewarding it felt when you reached the finish! We hope to see you out for another adventure soon. Cheers, The Mountain Trip Team

Highly, Highly recommend

This was our first time to do this type of activity. Our guide Chris was wonderful. He was very knowledgeable about the history of the area. He took photos for us. He was very patient with us and made sure we we comfortable and safe.
