This trip has become a treasured memory. Jesse made the trip so enjoyable and fun from beginning to end. We hiked past incredible views and basically had a private lakefront campground to ourselves the entire time. Serenity, adventure, bonding time with old and new friends. Couldn’t have asked for more!

What a wonderful trip! Jesse was such a great guide. He showed us so many beautiful views and we had an amazing campsite where we were right on a lake and got to see some amazing sunsets. Would highly recommend this trip and Jesse as a guide!
