Note: Weather credits are in-house-credits which can be used on rescheduled trips with Sierra Spirit LLC within one year of date of issue. Weather credits can be extended beyond the one year time limit, if you contact Sierra Spirit LLC and request an extension.
Minors: Sierra Spirit welcomes teens on our trips. We find they add fresh energy to the adventure.
Gratuity guidelines: Tips are always appreciated. A good guideline is $10-$15 per person, per day, per guide. Some like to hand the tip to the guide for a more personal experience. Some groups have pooled their tips and presented them to the guides at the end of the closing ceremony. However you do it, be assured that our hard working guides will appreciate it.
