We booked Aspire for our family guided snowshoe/hike through a part of the Rocky Mountain National Park. First time we've ever used this tour company. I can highly recommend, without reservation, this trip and our guide, Mel. We came from literally sea level at St Pete Beach, FL to Denver and then onto the Rocky Mountain National Park (RMNP) in two days and had never experienced a hike in snowy conditions at that altitude. Mel, our guide for the day, called us the day before to understand our expectations from the family for this trip, check out our fitness, equipment and preparedness for hiking at altitude, and then suggested a custom hike to meet our specific expectations and goals for the trip. She picked us up at our Airbnb in a Mercedes van and drove us directly to RMNP with stops in Lyons for coffee and croissants and onto Estes Park to rent the only equipment we didn't have with us...snow shoes and poles (the rental of which was included in our tour price). At the outfitter, they informed us that there was still plenty of snow in the RMNP, but the powder was gone and what was left was 2-3 feet of packed snow - not ideal conditions for snow shoes. So Mel adapted on the spot and recommended micro-spikes instead of snow shoes. Boy was she right, the mircro-spikes were ideal for the conditions and we were able to do the same planned hike with the proper equipment. I would rate the hike as "moderate" in terms of difficulty. We parked at the Glacier Ridge parking area and hiked up to Lock Vale and the views were spectacular! Mel was loaded with valuable, interesting and entertaining information ranging from the history and geological evolution of the Rocky Mountains and surrounding area as well as the flora and fauna of the RMNP itself. She was informative, playful at times (showing us how to slide down small hills on our backsides), but always serious in her first priority of ensuring that we were safe and comfortable. She made sure that we took plenty of water and snack breaks on the trail and we had a box lunch provided by Aspire on the frozen Loch Vale. Originally, the entire tour (including transportation back and forth) was scheduled for approximately, 8 hours..in fact we were gone for almost 10 hours because Mel was so responsive and accommodating to our requests to explore different areas and extend our mountain hike. This is by far the best experience I've had on a tour and with a tour guide. It's not inexpensive, but totally a great value for our family. We made memories (and pictures) to last a life time. Thank you, Mel!
