⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An unforgettable experience thanks to Hike For Life (HFL)! I climbed Pike’s Peak on October 18th with the incredible team from HFL, and I can honestly say it was one of the most challenging and rewarding experiences of my life. I hired HFL not only to guide me to the summit but also to teach me essential outdoor skills, and they went above and beyond in both aspects. My two guides, Britt and Mike, were phenomenal. Their knowledge of the terrain, weather conditions, and survival techniques was impressive, but what truly stood out was their unwavering motivation and support throughout the climb. Their encouragement made all the difference, especially during the last, most difficult stretch in white-out conditions. I’m not sure I would have made it without their expertise and belief in me. The climb itself took us through a total elevation gain of 4,300 ft, starting from just under 10,000 ft to the summit at 14,109 ft, covering a round-trip distance of about 14 miles. From navigating changing weather conditions—starting in the freezing dark and climbing through spring, summer, fall, and winter—to facing a challenging class 3 rock climb in near-zero visibility, my guides were calm, professional, and inspiring. Their preparation and guidance made this adventure not only possible but deeply rewarding. Reaching the summit was an emotional moment I’ll never forget, and I owe so much of that to the fantastic team at HFL. If anyone is looking for knowledgeable, motivating, and highly skilled guides for their next adventure, I can’t recommend Hike For Life enough!!! Thank you, HFL, for an incredible experience!

Thank you for a memorable trip! Our guide Bruce was great! Very knowledgeable and personable and always looking out for our well being. Jason was also fun and encouraging on the last leg of the hike. I would definitely do another hike with them again on a future trip. Mahalo!!!
