Summary:
This hike would make the highlight reel of my life! Midgard is top notch. We took a super jeep ride for about 45 minutes to the remote trailhead. Beautiful rugged scenery and jaw dropping views of mountains and glaciers. The first part of the hike was easy/moderate. Then we stopped for a delicious lunch which we purchased from Midgard. The next portion of the hike was a heart pumping climb of almost a mile up but the views made all that effort worth it. Our guide Valdy was very knowledgeable and personable. We were blessed with absolutely perfect weather making for an unforgettable memory. The total distance of both hikes was about 6.5 miles.

Summary:
Really a highlight of the trip. The place was beautiful and the guide was very knowledgeable about hidden spots off the beaten track. We were reluctant at first as we weren't sure the tents would be comfortable but we were pleasantly surprised and all slept very well
