The drive up to the ridge was beautiful. We stopped at an overlook that was amazing and that we wouldn't have stopped at, if it wasn't for our guide. We had a great hike at the top and the views were worth it.

For my birthday I wanted to try something I had never tried before! I had the pleasure of discovering Olympic Hiking Co. through Instagram and as soon as I swiped up I knew I sold on what would be the BEST birthday experience. What was originally intended as a group event ended up being just me, my mom and our incredible tour guide Tommy! We got our own little private snowshoeing tour and man was it AMAZING! Tommy was incredibly patient with both my mom and I seeing as it was our first time snowshoeing! He walked us through the steps and made sure to stop plenty of times along the way to capture us outside of our element! We’re two city girls from Texas so this was definitely something new for us! Tommy made sure to educate us on the history of the park and things we can see during different parts of the year. Towards the end those muscles really start to get a little sore but Tommy remained patient with us and made sure we had some snacks and water to get us through! We seriously enjoyed this experience so much and can not thank Tommy and the Olympic Hiking Co. enough for taking us on the adventure of a lifetime! Thank you for making my birthday weekend the best yet!!

My boyfriend decided to do this hike during our stay on Vancouver Island and I was happy we did! We were picked up close to the ferry terminal and were greeted by our welcoming and funny guide, Dana. The drive to the park itself was very scenic and Dana gave us a lot of information on the animals, the road itself, etc. The views were astonishing and the hike itself wasn't hard at all. You were constantly rewarded by the nicest views! Dana was an awesome guide and we had a lot of interesting conversations with her. Thanks again!
