Trip: North Rim of the Grand Canyon

Guide: Avery K., Spencer O.

Beautiful scenery with fun trails. The guides were awesome, both on the trail and at camp. It was so nice not having to cook and clean, and having the option to ride in the van when I got too echausted from hill climbs. They're not bad climbs, I just need more training.

Had never been to the Grand Canyon prior to this trip. This trip was everything I wanted in a supported mountain biking adventure. Western Spirit made the trip exceptional with making sure we were taken care of. The guides took care of everything and made sure we had what we needed.

The trip was absolutely amazing. KC and Chris were great at breaking down the bike sections and preparing us for what terrain was to come. They were fabulous guides. The food was delicious and plentiful. A very well organized operation.

Trip: Yellowstone and the Gravely Range Family

Guide: Garrett C., Claire B.

This trip was awesome. Most of all, Clare and Garrett were terrific--friendly, competent, calm, fun to be with, great with our son, and worked phenomenally as a team. Second, the trip itinerary was great; we loved the combination of traveling the off-the-grid ridge of the Gravelly range and the time spent inside of Yellowstone with well selected spots to visit. Third, the food was scrumptious and raved about by all. Our 11 year old son asked if we can do a trip like this every summer.

Trip: Backcountry Hot Springs

Guide: Franklin S., Lucas E.

It was a great trip. The guides were very good. The dirt roads got a little boring, but we knew that was what the trip was. Campsite great. Hot springs, except Bomgarten, were amazing - might have been nice to camp somewhere else that night if possible. The only "comment" was that the last day appeared to be rushed and the hot spring in that place was amazing. Might have been nice if we could have been told, if you want to visit the hot spring, go at 6:30 and come back for breakfast at 7am, ready to leave by 8;30.. In stead, we were rushed to eat right at 6:30, pack up , and then go to the hot springs if time. (Which we did, but again felt really rushed..) As almost all were on e-bikes, we reached the end with plenty of time to spare. I know that the staff has to anticipate emergencies, but it would have been nice to figure out some option that might have worked better. I know one person missed breakfast as they started cleaning up so quickly. As the guides ride so quickly, they could have stayed behind for a bit while we started riding if they weren't fully finished by the time we needed to start riding, as they did on many days. (They rarely started with us, and as so many of us had ebikes, they rarely road with us.) But again, over all they were great; scenery great. Hot springs amazing! food wonderful.

I had the most amazing time in SD that I was inspired to write a haiku; KC is the bomb CK is the bomb dot com Together they rock I was so thankful for this experience and for the incredible expertise and knowledge of our guides. Make sure you are in shape for the trip!

Great trip. Excellent guides. Only suggestion: stick some non-carbonated cold drinks in the cooler such as Gatorade or iced tea. Otherwise top notch. Franke and Luke are real pros and their auditioner Lewis was a nice addition.
