Classic Introductory to Backcountry Ski Touring Package

Ben showed patience and professionalism both times he took me into the backcountry. I highly recommend going out with him if you want to move from the resort to the backcountry.

Seamless booking. Carl was helpful to get me setup with the BEST guide, I mean superb . My first time back country skinning and then riding deep powder, I was so thankful that TY my guide was calm, patient , knowledgeable , picked me up when tired, very positive and given all the tips to help me thru the challenges. Will book again ! If you request TY you’ll be set for a spectacular day going at the pace you choose! I learned so much thanks red rivers!

John, an IFMGA Certified Mountain Guide led a backcountry tour for me today. It was a full on mountain adventure with extreme weather. My kind of day in the mountains. John is the epitome of what a guide should be. He is extremely personable, patient, fit, and a master of his profession. A Guide full of experience and knowledge. I learned an incredible amount of information today on mountain travel and avalanche related topics. He took the time to explain and ensure I understood the topics. He also shared tips and techniques that made my experience a 10 out of 10. I plan to hire John in the future. You can’t go wrong asking for John. He’s amazing!

Red River was amazing from start to finish. This was my first backcountry skiing experience and the team was super helpful and answered all my questions as I planned the trip. The gear, instruction, and guiding were all top notch and I would absolutely recommend this company for any of your adventures, especially backcountry skiing. I couldn’t imagine a more knowledgable, helpful, patient, and fun guide – Victoria. She is a true professional and speaks very highly of the company. I definitely lucked out stumbling across their Facebook ad. They take safety very seriously but it doesn’t impede the fun at all. Thank you again for a great trip!

My Dad and I booked a full day guided backcountry ski/snowboard tour in the Salt Lake City Area (Little Cottonwood Canyon). Our guide, John, was fantastic and did everything possible to make the day great. The route was fun and safe, and John gave us a few great options for trails to take. I would definitely recommend using Red River Adventures if you want to find a backcountry guide in SLC.
