A day among giants - Did this tour last week (August 2024). Kayla was our guide, and she was awesome! She made sure we all got to know each other, and as it was me plus a party of four who knew each other, this made me feel part of the crew! We swapped life stories during the drive and the social aspect was really pleasant without being overwhelming. As for the tour itself, we made a stop in Lewis and Clark State Park to walk among the tall trees of a genuine pacific northwest old-growth forest, and it was an experience I will never, ever forget! Sadly as we went on to the main part of our trip, we didn't get to see the top of Mount St.Helens, but the small walks that we did got us fairly close to the mountain and allowed us to appreciate nature's beauty and power. We ended the day at a place called North Fork Survivors. This newly-founded museum dedicated to preserving the memory of the people who perished in the volcanic eruption is maintained by Joe, who happens to be a Sasquatch researcher working with a University to collect data on this elusive primate. He is passionate both about his work on his museum and about his research. He is as dedicated, articulate and convincing as he is friendly, and this stop on the way back to Seattle could very well be the highlight of your day! The other guests were elderly people, and the so the tour was kind of mellow, but I didn't mind at all! It only showed me how Evergreen Escapes will tailor the day to people of all ages and abilities to make sure everybody gets the best out of their day. My only (very minor) gripe is that I would've liked to see a bit more of Mount St.Helens from various other viewpoints, as this is the theme of the tour, but I still got to see plenty of it : )) So hats off to Kayla, who was funny, friendly, well-organized and insightful, for making this tour an unforgettable experience I most definitely recommend!

A Mountain of Fun - Our senior group of four was extraordinarily pleased with our 12-hour tour to Mount St. Helen’s Monument. Our guide Kayla was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, articulate and had a great personality and a wonderful sense of humor. The tour itself was awesome. We hiked several trails at appropriate intervals during the drive and were served a beautiful picnic lunch in a park near Coldwater Lake. Dinner plates with silverware, tablecloth, and cloth napkins were set out with sliced chicken breast, a bean salad and a cheese corn salad, tofu, and dessert. It was a memorable tour with a number of other interesting stops and we all enjoyed the whole day. Definitely a 5-star adventure.

Two great days out - Great Trip to Mt St Helen’s with Brent and to Mt Rainier with Kenzie. Both guides highly knowledgeable. Breakfast lunch and snacks terrific. Mt St Helen’s was fascinating, the wildflowers and scenery at Mt Rainier spectacular

Awesome day at Mount st Helens guided by Brent - An awesome day spent at Mount St Helens. We had Brent Maphis as our guide, he was very knowledgeable and answered all our tricky questions. Brent is extremely nice and a funny person who made sure that the whole day was enjoyable to all of us in every way; from making a solo traveler like me feel so welcome to the tour to setting the table nice for our lunch. Recommend this tour with Brent to anyone wanting to visit Mount St Helens
