A phenomenal experience. Would recommend to anyone who is interested in getting into the back country.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Jenni Hanley2023-08-02I loved my guided climb with Newt! He chose a great spot that was shaded and not too crowded. Loved the routes he chose for us, which got gradually more challenging. He had a really nice mix of providing some beta while also encouraging us to figure it out for ourselves. Would definitely book an excursion with him again!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Connor Myers2023-07-22Have not used their service, but one of their guides, Newt, got me out of a jam a few weeks ago. I took off from the Eldo park and ride without my bag, and when he saw the abandoned bag in the parking lot, he read the situation perfectly, took it with him, made a post online, and got the bag back to me day of. Newt's an honest dude with good situational awareness, great qualities for a guide (and person) to have.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Jason Bryce2023-05-15Eric Whewell is professional and helpful, guided and taught my group well!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Ben2023-05-13The SPI course offered by SAI is phenomenal. It exceeded my expectations and taught me numerous invaluable skills I will undoubtedly make repeated use of in the future in both recreational and professional climbing settings. Thank you to Eric Whewell for running such a great program!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Christopher Hunnewell2023-03-14Max led my AIARE 2 course and went way above and beyond what I have experienced in previous courses. Beyond just going through he curriculum Max took personal ownership of the learning of the group and made sure to give us opportunities to implement what we had gone over. Cannot recommend a trip with Max enough!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Sig Newt2023-02-20Excellent group of very professional guides.
