How many guides are on a trip? What are their qualifications?
There are a minimum of two guides on all of our hikes. We value your safety during our hikes; thus, we have chosen our trails with this in mind. Our guides are veteran hikers trained in advanced first aid and CPR. In case of an accident or illness, they will aid the ill or injured person until medical help arrives or evacuation is executed. Any cost of evacuation (helicopter, etc.) and of the medical care beyond first aid are the financial responsibility of the ill and/or injured person. We carry on all our trips a First Aid Kit, two-way radios, GPS (Global Positioning System), cell phone, as well as maps and a compass. We advise each hiker to review their medical insurance coverage before taking part in a trek. Remember–Safety is top priority!
