    Our Guides: Experienced

    Byron Smith has been to the Khumbu region dozens of times, 2 times to attempt to climb Mount Everest with the ultimate success of summitting in May 2000, and multiple times as a tireless fundraiser for the Sir Edmund Hillary Foundation in support of The Sherpa People of Nepal. Byron also has the distinction of climbing to the top of the highest mountains on all seven continents, completing his Seven Summits Quest, making him one of only a handful of Mountaineers to have accomplished this feat which included the Mountain Carstensz Pyramid.

    Mingma Tenji Sherpa  A native of the Khumbu region, Mingma was born into the famous "Sherpa" family in the mid 90's and climbed Mt. Everest himself in May of 2000. With Mingma's cultural heritage, knowledge of Buddhism, and a supportive family that has climbed Mt. Everest more than 125 times our Trek will have a more insightful journey that will include opportunities, experiences and dialogue with the local culture that few other tour companies can provide.

    Earlier this summer I bought a Switchback Jacket. I was in a rush, needed a jacket, it fit so I bought it. This is a purchase I don't regret. It's kept me dry and comfortable  all summer long. Great price,great value. Thanks Spirit West!

    I went on a kayak trip in early September, 2022 and needed to upgrade some of my gear. I replaced my old rain gear with custom fit Spirit West SwitchBack jacket and pants. The fabric seems to be very similar to my Arcteryx coat but it's much quieter. The hood worked perfectly and was stiff enough that I didn't need a baseball cap. We had a several days of wind and rain and the coat and pants worked flawlessly. It's so comfortable that I'll be able to wear it around town too.
