  • We had a great time. Our guide James Gallant was awesome. He was patient knowledgeable and gave us all individual attention. It was like having a private lesson, He was willing to continue as much as we wanted to keep going and made sure we had the basic skills down.

Your patience, positive attitude, flexibility, extensive knowledge, and safe guidance are what made this trip so amazing, and I think it’s safe to say you have inspired us all to continue climbing cold, snowy, big mountains. I also want to say for me personally this trip was a much-needed respite from what’s been an incredibly difficult and challenging past year and a half. It calmed my mind and filled my soul. So thank you for helping to bring some joy and fulfillment to my life."

  • I couldn't have asked for more. It was only my second time in mountaineering boots and crampons, and James took the time to teach me how to improve my steps, get more comfortable moving, use an ice axe, set a pace.. I can't say enough how helpful it all was - they had my complete trust. It was a pleasure spending the weekend and learning from people who obviously love what he does and are impressively good at it.   Best,

  • Firstly, the trip surpassed my expectations in every way and this was due to your awesome guide James Gallant. His enthusiasm, professionalism, in-depth knowledge, patience (needed a lot of it!), show of care and FUN, made my experience a memorable one. While having hiked before I did feel a bit of a novice but James boosted my confidence daily.    The route was amazing, which was helped towards the latter stages by James' suggestion to break down into smaller chunks which was perfect, ending on a more relaxed hiking knowing that the major milestones were behind us.    Man can James cook! Food was delicious, the only request on the snack front was more BabyBells :-) The gear rented was top-notch and I felt I had everything I needed.    Only constructive comment would be for James to continue to invest in his card playing ... .he was easy to beat everytime :).    I will for sure book another trip soon.

  • "We had a great time. I think it exposed the boys to a new world beyond what they've seen in the outdoors before. I think he got a lot out of it in his own way and will really remember the trip positively for a long time. I really like the picture of you and Colin coming down off the peak, he was pretty pleased with himself. Arran is now obsessed with learning knots now so I've given him my knots book and will dig out my climbing rope when I get a moment. I really appreciate your patience and your efforts to entertain the boys throughout the weekend, which I don't think we'd have got with every mountain guide. We'll keep you guys in mind for any future trips we plan. Hope you have a great summer of adventures! Best"

  • Thank you so much for the experience! I had so much fun! I am definitely doing this again!

    -Ray

  • "Thank you for taking care of us.  Ryan joked that he gained weight on this trip because of how much he ate.  And James, he said that all your riddles kept him moving when his feet were not willing to.Thank you all for making this trip absolutely memorable!"

    -Hang N.

  • "Thanks again for an incredible experience. I can't believe it's been a few weeks - I'm still talking about our trip and using my skills *all* the time :) Last weekend, I was in Lassen Volcanic and hiked the Cinder Cone peak. The trail up the peak ascends steeply up loose rock and I was glad I knew some fancy french steps. I also felt pretty cool pointing out the Jeffrey pines from the Ponderosa. "
