They are fantastic guides! They were super helpful and very knowledgeable and kind. My guides for the trip were Ciaran and Cole and they were absolutely amazing to be with. Thank you Lasting Adventures for an amazing trip and experience. Because I was on a flight and them in dead cell areas I never got to s[peak to Ciaran prior but like a pro he had all the needed gear anyway - that is how prepared he is. Communication with Scott and Will was super prompt and there was a miscommunication with Ciaran regarding the gear I needed. In the bus from Fresno I met a guy who had used them and thought very highly of Lasting Adventures as well as met a woman filtering water at camp and she too had had a wonderful experience with them. I definitely will be using them in the future. I chose to use their gear (tent, bag, pack) but cowboy camped 2 nights (started to trickle 2nd night so I went in the tent). The culture we learned was fascinating and while we did not summit Half Dome (came within 500 steps) due to a storm coming in we did get to see a bear, bushwhacked, river walk (like done the middle of the Merced) and honestly just had a fantastic time. The views of course were great, the food our guide prepared (I eat vegan) was delicious and healthy. I am in my high 60's and we felt like a team. I went with a wonderful guide Ciaran and 4 twenty somethings - all beautiful people. I hope you continue to achieve your dreams. Caber, I hope you get to read this because you are an amazing human, guide and advocate for rock climbing and respecting your environment. He has bought a book of routes from the Climbing Museum in Maripisa today and he's planning his next dreams - to return and to actually climb them. Caber managed to fit everything to our group and no one felt in any way a hindrance.Ĭoming to Yosemite itself was epic, but seeing your son realise a dream is something we will never forget. He simply went above and beyond to ensure we had the experience we had hoped for and adapted to the group as our daughter was recovering from a cold and a little more restricted. As a keen rock climber himself, Caber was able to tell us stories of his adventures and this has completely inspired Ewan (our son), to one day return to achieve his dream. There wasn't a route or rock that Caber didn't know and he was able to show us walking routes avoiding the crowds as much as possible. Caber was the perfect guide for us with our rock climbing son. We are a family of 4, with 2 teenagers and Caber was our guide for a day hike.
