My wife and will go to 2-3 guided trips a year, each associated with some type of alpine adventure. Our trip to the Cascades was truly special not only did we experience the Stuart Lake to Snow lake iconic hike, but also rock climbed and slept on a porta ledge. What made the trip spectacular for us was our guide Jack. He's super knowledgeable about the area and he totally taught this 50 something year old more than a thing or two about climbing and repelling. He was very attentive to all of our conversations and nailed the food options on our trips. He was always on time and made us laugh more than once. I look forward to heading out into the wild with him in the future. If you are lucky enough to find him with availability, I highly recommend booking an adventure with him.

Jack was an absolutely wonderful guide. He was thorough, confident, full of entertaining stories and a very experienced guide. In addition to learning an abundance of information about technique and skill, he kept us laughing the entire trip. I can’t recommend him enough and would gladly book another tour with him. 10/10!

Indigo Alpine Guides is amazing! I would highly recommend a trip with them and Jack. I hadn't done much backcountry backpacking, and he led us every day with his entrepreneurial & positive spirit, patience, wonderful companionship, and great food! He kept me feeling safe, confident, and motivated during the challenging parts, and kept me learning and laughing during the lighter parts. He is a truly an expert in every way at what he does.

Jack and Indigo Alpine Guides are fantastic!  We booked a 7 day backpacking trip in Alaska with them, and it was a great experience.  All the logistics were seamless, and Jack's professionalism was outstanding guiding us through the Alaska backcountry. Extremely well done from start to finish.
