Instruction was solid and the days were well judged for conditions. Nothing fancy about the beds, and nothing wrong with them either. Simple food, well made, and enough of it. Would book with them again.

Snow was good and the group was kept to a sensible size. Dorms were tidy and the common areas were where the group actually gelled. The cooking was a genuine surprise — better than most places we'd have picked ourselves. No hesitation recommending them.

Conditions were marginal and I'd have preferred them to say so before we set out.

Questions people ask
No. Days two and three include instruction and the lower bowl is a good place to learn. Phase two is a long descent and the guide will hold you back from it if you are not ready.
