Oh my gosh!!!! This was an absolutely stunning g place to visit. I had seen pictures but it was beyond my expectations. ROAM did a great job of making sure I had everything I needed. Neal is a freaking legend of a guide and everyone would be lucky to enjoy this hike with him.

My family and I have been to the escalate area many times over the years, but this was the first time we explored the area with Roam, so glad we did! We learned about things we never knew and was able to access so many cool and beautiful areas on their tours. We will definitely be exploring with Roam next year when we come back. Thanks for the amazing time!
