"I look at my photos of the Arctic so often ... it was a great trip. I still have the fossils now laid out above my fireplace with a photo of the area. I also still have my stones from the Yukon River. Thanks again for a great time."

Greg (man from Anchorage) 2003

"Even though I've had years of experience, I've still learned numerous things about wilderness hiking while on your trips. I'll be looking forward to many more such trips before hanging up my hiking stick! There's nothing like sipping hot chocolate with peppermint schnapps next to a rushing stream while contemplating distant peaks in the late-evening twilight."
