Paul was a great guide! He was very knowlegable about the terrain and the greater Tahoe area. He was communicative prior to our scheduled meet up because of potential bad weather and offered alternative hikes. Thankfully the morning of was bright bule skies and calm air, so we were able to stick with the original plan. We had a beautiful morning of snowshoeing. It was the perfect duration and elevation gain for people with no experience. The chickadees were so cute!

We went snowshoeing for the first time with four adults, five teens, and a dog, and had a wonderful time. Paul was a great guide and was super accommodating for our larger group. He shared cool facts about the forest and lake area and showed us less touristy areas. The hike itself was not too difficult especially as we were able to move at our own pace, and the view at the top of the ridge was definitely worth it.
