Jerry Swider

The way that people express themselves in their free time shows what they desire and value the most. Personally, this takes the form of enjoying nature, engaging my body athletically, and spending time with those closest to me. I look forward to getting to show people the beauty of Colorado on our tours!

Jeff Brown

Mountains and music - magical! You’ll find me biking, playing guitar, skiing, going to shows at our wonderful Red Rocks Amphitheater, and sharing all the beauty of our area with our fabulous guests. “Colorado bluebird sky, you can live a mile high.”

Jake Reynolds

I’m all about two things: learning and movement. Guiding in Colorado is the perfect blend of these disciplines — I’m constantly gaining insight from new interactions with guests as well as the beautiful Colorado ecosystems we trek through daily.

Mike Czajkoski

I'm into fitness, walking, reading, connecting with interesting people, food, beer, creative compositions, having a sense of humor, taking naps. I became a guide because I wanted to travel but didn't have the resources to do it on my own.

Gentry Catlett

Guiding is my favorite thing to do: to show people what is so great about this place and to create great memories for them. I am always finding new places to explore in Colorado.

Jed Gallaher

When I'm not guiding tours, I like to forage, fish, hunt, camp, hike, keep learning and expanding my knowledge of all things outdoors. I'm most proud of my edible medicinal plant skills.

Aaron Landau

The outdoors are where I find my peace, and in history I gain inspiration for adventure. As an avid music fan, you can often find me riding the rail at the next concert, or getting down to some tacos and tequila at any of my favorite local spots.

Steve Lawless

My favorite part of working with Aspire is experiencing the joy and wonder of Colorado. I get to share beautiful places with others.

Josh Waltman

I once had a marketing internship and couldn't even hack 5 hours a day in a cubicle. Guiding is an avenue for me to get to explore, play, and adventure in the great outdoors instead of being a desk jockey.
