5.00What a wonderful company!! I accidentally booked the wrong day and they completely worked with me to allow us to still go up for the day. The most absolutely amazing, genuine, wonderful people working there. The experience was once in a lifetime with doing an alpine landing and then continuing on for the Luxmore Hut drop off. My dad and I continued on towards the summit and then walked through the path down to the lake. It was an easy climb down. He had a torn meniscus at the time and was still able to do it easily with a brace.
