“David is the best tour guide for utah. He is extremely knowledgeable about Utah’s history, land marks, local plants, local flowers and local birds. He speaks several languages. He accommodated the climb to 11000 feet to my hiking skills so that I did not feel any elevation dizziness. I highly recommend David for the snowbird excursion.”

- Maintained trails with uneven footing, steps and sustained climbs. Up to six miles across a full day, usually in two or three separate walks.
- Full days out, often above 6,000ft, and canyon country runs over 100°F from June to August. Shade is not guaranteed.
- Not suitable for a wheelchair, a walker or anyone who cannot manage stairs without a rail. Comfortable if you walk regularly.
- Your guide may change or drop a stop for weather, road closures or time. What is walked on the day is their call.
Anything specific — a knee, a hip, a height worry, a wheelchair — is worth one phone call to 800-970-5864. We would rather move you to a different trip than have you on the wrong one.
