Having experience, trust and fun in a guide company is really important. You want them to show you…read morethings that you haven't seen before, and lead you to places you might not have found on your own. You also want to see through their guiding how your safety and fun experience is their first priority. Ryan and Matt did an excellent job of all of this. They also took the time to explain about the terrain, the environment and fun trivia to keep the hike interesting. Having a little fondue and cider at the top of the hike was a neat touch as well. They were especially helpful in making sure that I was ok during my Asthma attack, and held up the pace when I struggled on the last climb. These guys were amazing guides and we would definitely use them and recommend them anytime.

We rode 2 cattle drives, the Grand Canyon mule ride into the canyon and we trail ride every where we go. This was different. We rode out in to the national forest with an outfitter that specializes in hunting Elk . This was amazing. You ride up and down the mountains south east of Estes Park. I have not been on a better ride / adventure in my life time. During the ride you find home stead's now abandoned from the 1800's. The most beautiful land you will ever see and not a person for miles. 11 miles of uninhabited national park. You can't do better

Excellent experience…read more.. We were accommodated like we were family. The day we scheduled turned out to be windy, thirty MPH gusts. We called that morning and mentioned the forecast, they switched us to the next morning when conditions were close to perfect. No hassle, no hesitation. Our guide, Rob, was as friendly and professional as we could have hoped for. We had a great time conversing with him about all sorts of fishing and boating experiences we both enjoyed in the past. He was extremely helpful. He quickly figured out that my wife and I were experienced boaters... we volunteered to drive as he netted fish and put them in the live fish well. He had some great stories of outdoor adventures and we shared our experiences about surfing behind our boat in SC. We caught our limit and let a few smaller Trout free in exchange for some nice sized fish. Rob cleaned them for us since we are in a small RV with no real place to handle that chore. We left him with a nice tip and were thrilled to do so in return for the great time and service he provided. It's not a cheap trip... but the marina is closed and there would otherwise not be a chance to fish on this lake. Rob had snacks and drinks for us. He stopped off for a restroom break at my wife's request. We enjoyed the trip so much that after just two hours we called it done. Rob offered to fish another two hours, but we seriously felt that we had gotten our money's worth and headed back to our RV with four meals worth of Trout. This outfit is definitely first rate. If you want a great fishing experience this outfit will definitely deliver.

I was craving to get into the water after seeing all the kayaks out there. Mountain Paddlers made it really easy for me to rent a kayak. You can rent online ahead of time or they take walk-ups if there are kayaks available. You can reserve either a solo or tandem kayak on an hourly basis at the Kayak Shak near the beach. After making payment, you then take your receipt to the loading area to get into your kayak. There are staff members on hand to help you into your kayak. The kayaks are comfortable and sturdy and suitable for all ages. The staff went over the boundaries of the lake with me and the fun places to go exploring. They also gave me a dry bag to put my phone and keys in. I had a blast kayaking all around Grand Lake. It is such a beautiful lake and there is lots to explore. I really enjoyed the mountain views and the fresh air. I was able to make my way over to Shadow Mountain Lake. I highly recommend checking out Mountain Paddlers if you are spending a day here. The rental process was simple and the service was great.

Shadow Mountain Lake is so peaceful and not as many people there. The crowds show up around 11-12pm. Fantastic experience!

Today we were fishing a stretch of the Big Thompson. A section where a permit is required to enter…read more We arrived around 8:30, and parked next to a family with two women and two small children. The days here have been unfortunately hot, so I forewent putting my waders on, grabbed my gear, and headed over to my favorite bend in the river. My wife stayed at the car, suiting up in her waders. About thirty to forty minutes into my fishing, my wife came to the beach and greeted me. We chatted for a moment and I could hear an adult and children approaching me. "Excuse me?" She says I turn and greet her, happy to meet another angler. But it went south from there. "I'm a guide here." She says. "Are you familiar with the concept of high holing? Because that's what you just did." I then turn quickly to my wife for some type of weird reassurance as I do not understand the sin I committed against her. If anything, she was coming to "my" spot, though the entire river is walkable and great fishing. I didn't understand. I said "huh? I've been here since before you came on the water." "No you haven't. We got here before you and we were on the river before you." Figuring she didn't see me, I broke it down. "No, I left my wife at the car to suit up and came in here to fish some time ago, in fact yall have been walking towards me this whole time." Now. At this point, she could accept the truth and then apologize, but instead she gaslit me, saying I was not there at all and that I had been alongside them the whole time taking up their fishing space. That's when I got super mad, because I was not lying but she was accusing me of exactly that. Also, I'm a local who has lived here ten years. I work hard and on my days off I love to fish. I DONT love being interrupted by some privileged woman shoving me out of a spot. I dropped an f bomb and said are you effing serious (which was a mistake, and I am sorry to have said that in front of two children. But she did bring her children right alongside her to "confront" me about her space on the river) Also, to approach me and make this accusation, she had to walk past 200 feet of perfect bends and holes and spots on the river to fish. I suspect deeply that because she had children, she wanted my wide open spot of beach so she could watch the children. The really strange thing is???? The river belongs to us ALL. Had she approached in a friendly manner and asked if I minded sharing said spot I would have happily waded up river to fish another spot. But she confronted me, said I broke rules I didn't break in an attempt to encroach on where I was casting, and ruined our peace. She loudly bragged that she is a guide for Sasquatch Fly Fishing. Two weeks ago I met MK out on the same stretch of river and had the nicest conversation and was so excited to learn of her business out at the Y. But when I spoke to the family about what happened they just shrugged and said "whatever". I maintain that maybe just telling your guides not to be bullies and jerks is a course of action. Won't ever be using this shop for guiding, shopping, or any other services as there are plenty of guides I've met on our rivers who were kind, informed, and friendly. This girl just wanted her own spot, and to flex her little "guide" muscles somehow. If you want really great guides, check out Kirk's or Estes Angler. Happy fishing everyone!!!
