Wow. This was amazing. My family (total six people) and I had the most amazing experience here. From 11 to 73 years old in our group, and no one had anything less than the best time of their life. Guides Emma and Wade set everyone at ease and ensured it was fun (and funny) at every step. I was personally impressed with their professionalism, safety, and in how much they know about the local area. We had an amazing time and even learned a bit. Recommend 10/10.

My partner & I can't on Memorial Day weekend & had an amazing time. The views were absolutely spectacular & our guides, Connor and Emma were fantastic - knowledgeable, professional, thorough and funny. I'd never been zip lining before & they made me feel prepared & very comfortable. If you're thinking about going, definitely do it - the experience was well worth the money.

This experience was wonderful. Simultaneously relaxing and exhilarating, you can tell the people who designed it love adventure and nature. The zip lines had beautiful views and the speed that were interspersed with the walking bridge, the two rappel lines, and the little bit of hiking. The hiking wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be, but I could definitely tell the steps were made for taller people. I’ve been telling everyone that this experience far exceeded my expectations. As cool as it was to zip line through the trees or rappel like Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible, I contend the experience was made much richer because of the people I met. We had a varied group that I had a wonderful time chatting with in between zip lines. Wade and Lia were wonderful and hilarious, and their different personalities were delightful to experience. Wade was clearly very comfortable with the material, running through safety instructions and giving directions in a humorous and sarcastic way. Lia was informative and engaging as she shared a good pirate joke and information about some of her favorite trees we came across. Wade enriched the experience with witty banter, but I’m eternally grateful for Lia offering reassurances when I was nervous about the rappel line. Cannot recommend this experience or Wade and Lia enough!

We had the pleasure of experiencing the zipline canopy tour this past weekend, and it exceeded all our expectations. Our guides, Joey and Daniel H., were truly exceptional. Their expertise and enthusiasm made the adventure unforgettable. The photos they captured of everyone were incredible—far better than anything we could have taken ourselves. Purchasing those photos was definitely worth it. We couldn't have asked for a better experience.

This was a fun and exciting experience! Our guides were John and Emily and they did a fantastic job! We had ziplined before, but our daughter never was able to get enough speed to make the end of the line. At the Gorge she didn't have that problem at all! Between the angle and build up of speed she made the end of every line! The rappels caused our daughter a little stress, but Emily did a great job helping her face her fear and realize how safe and fun it was!
