Great Experience! - I had a wonderful time and the team had the supplies we needed to safely complete the hike. I was novice of the group but they stayed close and rooted me on. Learned a lot and saw some beautiful sites. The only down side for me wad the price at the solo rate was pretty steep compared to 2 plus groups but my guide kept me company so it was worth the price. And they made sure you get some good pictures.
