Bruce and Jordan were excellent guides. They conveyed the material in an easy to understand way and made us confident in our skill sets and what we’d learned. Couldn’t recommend SJE AIARE 1 more!

Evan Clapper is down to earth and very knowledgeable of the San Juan mountains and Moab area. He was patient and communicated well with our group during our AIARE I course.

Knowledgeable guides with different approaches to the backcountry made it a great dynamic for classroom and tour planning. We went to the field every day and I couldn’t have asked for a better class. I would highly recommend this company.
