Jordan and Chris were amazing. Both are incredibly knowledgeable and clearly know how to teach and guide. They made our trip to Opus even better.

Trip: SJE AIARE Avy 1 Course
Guide: Chris T.
It was amazing! Chris did a great job educating the crew on how to plan a safe route in the backcountry, how to read snow, great tips to use in the backcountry and how to use our avalanche gear! I’m so geeked to use all information to plan trips in the backcountry.

Kam and Jordan absolutely rock. We had the best day - all down to their expert guiding, friendly, welcoming vibe and the chill vine that did not short change the stoke

Trip: Ouray Ice Park - Full Day
Guide: Suzanna L.
Excellent! This was such a fun day! Suzanna let us try out routes that were fun and challenging while providing helpful feedback. It was great to be able to really experience the ice park and get great tips on technique that I can improve on. Suzanna was really calm, patient, and fun. I would absolutely climb with her again. A truly memorable day that I enjoyed so much!

Trip: SJE AIARE Companion Rescue Course
Guide: Kam W., Matthew C.
Our guides were super knowledgeable, and most importantly very approachable. There was not judgement or anything like that. It was a comfortable learning environment with great feedback and tons of knowledge to be shared. The day was well organized, in a beautiful and easy location, and the guides work very hard to set up good simulations. We loved it.
