This is our third trip with Four Season Guides, and we will keep using FSG for the singular reason of being the best in the business for guided hiking trips!!

Prior to the our 5 day backpacking trip in Utah, David and Scott, who run the business office, were extremely helpful, friendly and always present to answer questions and kept our group well informed, either by phone calls or emails. We have used FSG for Grand Canyon trips and wanted to venture into Utah this spring. Our two guides, Jeremy and Dani were extremely pleasant, fun and knowledgable and our group of 8 bonded quickly and had a fabulous trip. The food was very tasty, plentiful and left nothing to be desired. And Jeremey and Dani somehow excel at anticipating your needs, always quick to offer a hand, and their generosity and kind demeanor were always present. One morning, i somehow slept in a bit, well beyond everyone else, and Jeremy kindly approaches my tent with a steaming hot cup of coffee to encourage my morning. Dani's knowledge of the flora, the geology, and history of the area was stunning and made it fun to hear about this beautiful area.


We signed up for the 4 night/5 day Boulder Mail Trail. For our group who are fairly experienced backpackers, I found this to be not so challenging as the Grand Canyon. The scenery was stunning, great vistas, and we were lucky to have perfect weather.


We are already planning our next adventure with FSG, hopefully back to the GC in the fall. Yes, we have used three other guide companies over the past 4 years, but there is no doubt that FSG is the best of them all. Why, they consistently have the best guides and certainly the best food of them all.

Get outdoors and enjoy!
