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!!!

Trip: Nader's Pikes Peak Summit
Guide:
My son Humza got to summit pikes peak within 72 hours of his arrival into Colorado Springs from Dallas as part of his 21st birthday celebration weekend with Bruce. To avoid any acclimatization risks up at higher altitudes and noticing the mismatch between my fitness and my son’s, Bruce advised against me accompanying my son. He preferred to make less revenue in favor of the birthday boy enjoying the hike at his own pace. Humza summited in less than 5 hours. Bruce prioritizes experience over $$.

Trip: Palmer Park Hiking Tour
Guide: Mindy S.
Coming from flat Florida, we chose Hike for Life as a way to learn about hiking safely for our month in Colorado. So far we have hiked in Palmer Park and learned about twisted trees. Mindy was our guide both times. She was responsive to our interests and our capabilities. She is also very knowledgeable and gave us a good introduction to safe hiking. We learned much about hiking and the environment. In addition, Mindy even went back to the park and found our keys after we realized we lost them!

We had an amazing Garden of the Gods hike with Jason. He told us historical stories, recalled facts about plants and the land, and made our hike enjoyable. We loved every second of our Colorado excursion!
