Your many phone calls, 2 hours spent going over our trips logistics and making sure we were prepared, ready, and safe made the trip a success. This was a absolutely spectacular 7-day backpacking trip planned and supported by you! Thank you for everything you did from CB's to water purifying feedback to helping with our permits.

God be with you, our days out far exceeded our expectations. Again thank you for such a wonderful day around Boulder and for my parents grand day up to high mountains. They were so happy! (Kareesh, Pakistan, November 2009)

Josh, thankyou for your concern and advise. Being a long way from home and knowing no one in the area, I called you because we were scheduled for a guided day on Tuesday. Thank you for all your help in suggesting which physican to see, how to navigate to system in Boulder, and taking me to the clinic for free. As you know, I fractured my ankle walking on the trails in Boulder by myself. My brother is a physican and he said the MD who examined and treated me was first rate. Sadly, I was really looking forward to getting out in the mountains with you but it did no happen this trip. I am planning on returning next year for our conference and will no doubt join you then. Again, I can not thank you enough for helping me with everything and being so concerned about my wellbeing when you had no obligation to. You are an incredibly caring person, (I am also so lucky you are such an estute nurse) thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you! (Mary Anne, Rhode Island, November 2009)
