Trip: AIARE Avy 1 Course
Guide: Kam W., Bruce S.
Kam, Bruce, and Jake were incredible instructors and created a safe and welcoming learning environment. We got some great time on snow and had a lot of fun while we learned how to be safer in the backcountry. I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to take an AIARE course.

What a great group of guides - professional, knowledgeable and fun! They know the San Juan’s and they know how to deliver. I would recommend this outfit to anyone looking for a backcountry day or avalanche education. 5 stars all the way!!

Trip: PRIVATE | SJMA AIARE 1 Hut Course
Guide: Tico G., Anthony A.
This 3 day avy 1 course at the Thelma hut was fantastic. Tico and AJ were amazing guides. There was a nice mix of class instruction and field work the first day and then field work the next two days. Throughout the instruction, touring and skiing, Tico and AJ gave the participants the opportunity to apply what was taught and question us through the process and questions rather than just giving us the answers and information. They were both incredibly knowledgeable in the content. Thanks guys

Guide: Kam W.
Kam was an AMAZING guide and made sure we had a great time! The whole team at San Juan Expeditions were great to work with from the very start. Any questions we had were quickly answered, they were quick to help with renting the gear we needed, and everyone we met was super friendly. We will definitely be using San Juan Expeditions for future trips and classes!

Trip: Vestal/Arrow Train trip
Guide: Kam W.
Had a great time on this trip. Did not get to summit due to weather but guide was great! In pre trip planning I had mentioned to guide that I am not a big fan of dehydrated meals so he prepared non-dehydrated meals which I very much appreciated. Guide easy to get along with and kept it interesting. Great terrain and fall colors. Professional as well
