Yellow Wood Guiding

Jared was absolutely great. Did the Wildlife tour and the Best of Tour. He is super knowledgeable about the area as well as knowing the best times and places for photography. I have some amazing shots thanks to him. He was also very patient with me being slightly paranoid about walking on ice! (Floridan).
If I get back to Estes I will be taking one of his tours again.

Best birthday present ever! My sister and I did one of the sunrise tours. I've been on wildlife tours all over the country and this one was my favorite. Jared is a very knowledgeable naturalist and he has a great entertaining, conversational manner. Not only did he find tons of wildlife for us to watch, he talked all about the animal behaviors we were seeing (that's not common in my experience - a lot of guides I've toured with end the conversation at "hey look! An elk.") Even in between seeing animals, Jared was unstumpable. I had questions about the trees in RMNP and the geology and he has so many interesting facts to share. Thanks for a great morning, Jared!

Jared never disappoints. Once again we toured Rocky with Jared introducing our adult children to the beauty of the nature in the area. Jared is thorough, entertaining, passionate, and incredibly knowledgeable. We will continue to connect with him when we are in the Estes Park area as well always learn something new.

Smartest money we ever spent during a trip! Jared is a master class in all things Rocky - geology, biology, botany, history, and culture. He is a nature nerd's nature nerd! We had basically one day in Rocky Mtn Nat'l Pk and he took us places you'd never see from the pullouts and hiked with us into the brilliant aspens at 9000 feet (take his advice about the water)!. He gave us tips to explore later in the day after our morning tour, and we knew what to look for. We can't rave enough. What a memorable trip!

Jared was wonderful. He is very knowledgeable on the area and was able to point out lots of details we didn't know about the Rocky Mountain National Park. His photography knowledge is also wonderful. Will definitely book again the next time we come out to the area from Illinois

Jared was very knowledgeable and gave us a great tour both in the morning and the evening. We felt like we had a comprehensive and informative tour and that we were able to use our short time at RMNP to its fullest. Jared is knowledgeable as a naturalist as well as a photographer. He picked great spots for photos and gave me lots of hints for a good picture. He was very clear about what to expect. We would highly recommend him as a tour guide.

Incredible experience. Jared is practically a walking encyclopedia and expert photographer. Very knowledgable, having an answer to all our questions and more. He knew the best spots for views, animals, and more. Also, he caters the trip to your liking. We preferred views and sightseeing, and he made the most of the our tour. Super friendly! Highly recommend! Great, priceless camera equipment to use as well. Thanks, Jared!

Jared took my girlfriend and me on a guided wildlife tour this past Saturday, June 27, 2020, and it was fantastic. We saw 19 Moose, dozens of Elk, a herd of ewe sheep up close, and several lambs and ewes up on a tall hillside. Jared was very knowledgeable on RMNP, the wildlife, history, where we should go to see what we were wanting to see (Moose and Elk mostly), and so much more. He was very friendly, asked questions, and generally just very enjoyable to be with for four hours. Pictures of some of the wildlife we saw are attached. Thank you Jared.

Awesome experience with Jared G. of Yellow Wood Guiding. Jared knows all the prime spots for landscape photography. I learn so much in such a short period of time from Jarod. F stop to depth of field,composition and other factors to take prime photos.Could not say enough about the experience. It was the highlight of my trip to Rocky Mountain National Park. Looking forward to seeing you again Jared next year for more new adventures and experiences.

Stop reading this review and book your trip!!! Seriously, this is the best photography tour ever. Jared nailed it. The knowledge, experience, and customer service is just unmatched. There is no doubt that I'm a better photographer now because of this trip. The images I was able to shoot were top notch. His equipment is amazing too, which I guess you might expect for a pro.

He really prepares you for the trip with some youtube videos and he was right on time. We had a morning tour focused on Wildlife. It was a great day, animals were out in the open and we went all over the place to get as much as we could in. His SUV was very clean and comfortable, it even had a large glass roof so you could see up the mountain! He really made sure you got to do what you wanted. We had tons of options for what we could do and he did not disappoint. He really explained the area, talked about animal behavior, and even helped us prepare for future trips on our own. He was very surprised we got to see a bull moose even!

Jared- Thank you so much. We will be booking you again in the future and I will ensure any friends I have going up will also book a trip or two. We went back and got good shots of the Rams and a saw small pack of Coyote too. No cats but we did see a fox on the way home! We will be planning another trip this year no doubt!
