Wendy provided us with a great day of fun, exercise, and exploration! Our group was me, my colleague, and her girlfriend. We are all reasonably fit individuals and Wendy made sure that we were going at a pace that was comfortable for all, providing appropriate rest breaks and checking in to ensure we were all comfortable. Wendy made sure that we had everything we needed. She brought snacks, a warm drink, treats, and hand/foot warmers for us. The equipment was great. Her driving through snowy mountains was great. We were lucky to have been there on a day that it was snowing. It felt like we were walking through a snow globe! To top it all off, she gave us restaurant recommendations for the remainder of our stay in Denver. I got to check one of them out (Linger) and it was fabulous. Thank you Wendy! Our trip to Denver was made better by meeting you!

Aw, thank you ddm251! I really enjoyed your group and am so pleased that it was snowing! I'm even happier that you enjoyed it so much. Please look up Yeti Set Go again next year, I'd love to snowshoe with you again. Happy trails!

We had a great hike! Wendy gave us all the info we needed to be prepared and she provided all the equipment for the hike. Learning about the history of the area was interesting. The scenery was beautiful and the hike was not to strenuous for us non hikers but we got a great workout in.

Words can’t even begin to describe the awesome time we had with Lisa for our snowshoe hike. She was so patient with us as we started out. Being from South Louisiana, we had no idea where to even start. She picked us up from our hotel in downtown Denver, provided all the gear we needed, taught us how to use it, and we set off. Lisa was knowledgeable about the area and very personable. We left our trip felling like we had been friends for years. I will recommend this hike to anyone and everyone who is thinking about taking a trip to Colorado.

Thank you Godfrey! This gave us all at YSG an enormous smile. Thank you for spending some time with us in our backyard. We look forward to your return when we can show something new again. Much peace and prosperity to you in 2020. Wendy
