Our guides were Lexie and Tommy and they made our trip so much fun! If you are allowed to request guides, request them if you are looking for music (oldies), singing and dancing while you wait your turn, light-heartedness, history about the area, strong sense of safety, and complete joy. There were 6 ziplines, each with their own unique adventure through the Rocky Mountains. Highly recommend.
