We had a wonderful time with Sara and Taylor! They were very knowledgeable and worked so well with the youth on the trip!! They really elevated the experience, and I could not imagine going to Mt. Rainier without their expertise.

Malachi and Melody really enjoyed this trip. Malachi said he saw something like a wholly mammoth then Godzilla. He went on a cool kayak and saw low end of the totem poll. He saw some cool fungi. And enjoyed the smell of hazelnut and huckleberry. It was also informative getting to learn about how much garbage is on the earth.

Great snowshoeing trip to Mt. Rainier! Lorelei and Sara were fun and easy going. We had lots of fun playing in the snow in the sunshine. Definitely will do more future trips with Sahale Outdoors! Thank you Lorelei and Sara for being awesome guides!:)

My family of three really enjoyed our snowshoeing trip. The guides made the trip more enjoyable. We appreciated their information, as well as their enthusiasm for being outdoors with our group. We are looking forward to joining them on a future trip.
