Rocky Mountain National Park Tour with Jerry S…the S stands for sniffing trees 👃🌲🥾

5.00Jerry S. was such a friendly and caring guide! Since it was in the 90’s that day (August) he took us on a more shaded path. I really appreciated that especially while recovering from an injury. I couldn’t quite finish the 4 miles (altitude is no joke!), but for healthy beginner hikers, this is still a great excursion. We followed a stream with magical waterfalls most of the way…it was so peaceful! Jerry even had us sniffing trees (yes, really!) to show how some of the oldest orange-colored ones have a sweet scent. Between his humor, care for the group, and the stunning views, it was an unforgettable experience.
5 star hiking day!

5.00We could not have asked for a better tour! Jed was an amazing guide; witty, knowledgeable and an expert! We were a lovely group of 8 and had such a rewarding experience hiking to Lake Haiyaha, which was a stunning turquoise lake. Saw an elk, deer and bald eagles during our adventure. We will cherish this experience forever!
