Laurie was really great about contacting us in advance to discuss what we hoped to gain from our guided experience. On the day of the climb she discussed our options for the climb with regard to weather and risk then gave us choices. The climb was both enjoyable and instructive. Laurie was very professional and I always felt safe but also at ease as I would feel with a friend. At the end of the day and afterward in an email she shared resources that we might like to pursue and welcomed us to contact her with questions in the future! I woukd love to climb with Laurie again and will definitely recommend her to any friends looking to get into ice climbing, rock climbing or mountaineering

Laurie guided us climbing Lion Head Winter Route on 2/15/2024. It was a sunny but cold and windy day. The original plan to Climbing Mt. Wash via Huntingtons/Tucks had to be changed. She looked at the peaks and explained to us the possibility of avalanches and challenges climbing Tuckerman's Ravine before changing the route. She’s very knowledgeable and professional. She made the climbing up and down safe and sound by securing the robe to the trees. I leaned a lot during the trip. It was a great and fun day. I enjoyed it from the beginning to the end. Laurie is not only a supper knowledgeable Mountain guide but also a very nice person. We talked over the phone before the trip to discuss my interests and goal for the adventure. I got frostbite from a sub zero day hike a month before. She brought very warm mittens in case I needed them. I will definitely get back to her for another climbing.

Trip: AMGA SPI Exam: Franconia Notch

Guide: Ted T.

Ted and Matt are able to make an exam environment feel fun and stress-free. We had unpredictable weather, and they were always prepared to adjust plans in a productive way. We had a large group and I think they did an awesome job of assessing each individual, while providing helpful overviews and takeaways at the end of each session. Thanks a lot!
