Vicky is amazing, so full of energy and clearly passionate about what she does. She has such a positive and welcoming attitude, I instantly felt as if she were an old friend. She was incredibly knowledgeable and answered all of our 1 billion questions and if she didn't know the answer off the top of her head (which was rare), she would find out and get back to you. Truly could not have asked for a better guide!

Vicky was amazing. Her kindness made the trip so wonderful; she was a joy to travel and hike with! The pace she set was perfect, and made the hikes such a joy. I especially appreciated how she made mine and my brother's birthdays so special. She also kindly extended a day of hiking for me and a few others one afternoon when the optional later hike was unavailable because those trails were closed due to landslides. Rather than simply retracing our steps from the morning (which had been my own suggestion) she took us on another route that gave us amazing panorama views of the valley below. It was my favorite hike of the trip!
