Don't Just Take Our Word For It
★★★★★I appreciated that this was as much a guided tour as a class. Mick and Joel explained their decision making throughout the day. After assessing the avalanche risk, they put together a potential plan and then changed it as needed based on the conditions that day.

★★★★★Archer and Kevin were extremely helpful in teaching the proper mountain skills as well as helping us set goals for the weekend outside of just summiting the mountain, which I found really enjoyable making that personal connection and then sharing with the group.
Cole H.
★★★★★Everyone was professional, friendly, and totally committed to helping me achieve my climbing goals. I cannot say enough about Kaf, and encourage others to try them instead of one of the larger but less personal mountain guiding services in the area.
Jonathan K.
★★★★★I had an amazing experience and had zero issues being on a rope team (my first time) and David was encouraging the whole way. I recommend anyone use Kaf for guiding needs. The entire staff is super helpful, SO NICE, and very accommodating.
