Emily guided myself, my 14 year old daughter and 20 year old son on a perfect hike of the Lamar Valley. She is incredibly knowledgeable and we had a fantastic time learning about Yellowstone while enjoying the breathtaking flora and fauna. We loved how she used artifacts in her short presentations. The hike was just the right pace and lunch by the river was perfect. Highly recommend this outfit.

Wow! Emily Jo knows her stuff!!! I had an AMAZING day hiking up to Bunsen Peak and then on to Osprey Falls. Emily Jo knows so much about the flora and fauna in the area and I learned so much while taking in the scenery. She made sure I had enough food, water and clothing to ensure a safe journey, and explained bear safety thoroughly. As a city girl, I felt very comfortable following behind her and I can’t wait to come back to do more exploring. This hike is strenuous but SO worth it to escape the crowds and really appreciate all that Yellowstone is. Do yourself a favor and book with them, you will not regret it!

Our family of three (parents and 10-year old) had an amazing adventure in the Lamar Valley with Emily Jo Mahan. She took us on a back-country hike through a beautiful section of the valley and showed us many of the subtle and hidden aspects of Yellowstone’s natural history. She was very knowledgeable about the animals and plants we saw and enthusiastically answered all of our questions. We had a great lunch, and my wife particularly appreciated the vegetarian sandwich. We three give the tour six thumbs up.
