The 2007 SAC Crew....... The best yet!

 

The owners of SAC would love to take all of the credit for the phenomenal growth, increased market share, and the great trips we offer. The truth, is that we owe it all to our guides.. We may offer the best trip in the world, but if your guide is inadequate all is lost.

SAC guides are the best in the business, they are engineers, actors, students, small business owners, high school teachers, ski patrollers, biologists, ski bums and freelance photographers. They are all professionals in their own field and bring that knowledge and experience to work everyday. They have the ability to pump confidence into a scared child, lead a boat through wild rapids and cook a riverside meal that will amaze you.
