"5 stars is too few. Zack and his wife are amazing at creating specially tailored bucket-list experiences. They are friendly and communicative so you're never left in the dark. I went on the half-day ice climbing trip. He personalized the trip for me. He is generous in sharing supplies to keep you warm (my biggest fear alleviated). He is upbeat and encouraging. He and his brother in-law made great photographers and videographers to document an amazing bucket-list adventure. It felt great to support a local family business. Thanks for an exciting adventure, Zack!"
