Montana Guided Adventures.
Glacier National Park Tours
Flathead National Forest Tours
Take off through the Crown of the Continent on an E-Bike, exploring America’s world-famous Going-To-The-Sun Road with all the freedom of a bicycle and none of the struggle. Chase the warm winds as they dance through an alpine meadow along your hike, then turn the corner and witness a mighty glacier clinging impossibly to a sheer cliff face. Sleep under a billion stars, wake up at the foot of a lake above the clouds, then lace your boots up and do it all over again.
We also offer custom trips!

1. Are you a local company or a national chain?
We are 100% locally owned and owner-operated. While many guiding services in the Glacier region are now owned by large out-of-state corporations, we live, work, and play right here in West Glacier. When you book with us, you are supporting a small Montana business, and you’ll often find our owners right at the shop or out on the trails.
2. What is the benefit of an "Owner-Operated" guide service?
It means we are personally invested in your experience. We don’t have a distant corporate office; our reputation is built on every single tour and rental. You get "insider" knowledge that only comes from living here year-round, and you can trust that our gear is maintained to the highest personal standards because our names are on the door.
