One of the worst customer service experiences I have had anywhere, with interactions mostly with…read morethe Owner and General Manager. From the moment I walked in the door, these two were rudely demanding I follow a bunch of rules that were inadequately posted with signage in various locations around the space. Most of their rules seem aimed at driving up sales, not with friendly customer service or reasonable prices or good food smells, but with rudely enforced restrictions on the use of artificially limited space. I had a young child and a younger baby. We came for a birthday party. I had a bit of cake and ice cream to share with the baby. He demanded that we not use the plentiful supply of empty picnic tables to eat, but instead insisted those spaces were only for the consumption of food items purchased off the over-priced menu, above and beyond the cost paid by the hosts of the party. Birthday cake and ice cream, they said, could only be eaten in the tiny (walk-in closet sized space) with one picnic table that had been rented for the party, filled with kids celebrating. I asked to see the signage about this rule and was pointed to one small sign on the opposite side of the large and mostly unoccupied dining area full of tables. I mentioned to the owner that this was inadequate signage and that I would be leaving a review about my experience. I added 'good day', as I walked away from him and GM. He followed me back to the other side of the dining area and threatened to throw me out. He further asked if I would like to be escorted out by the sheriff. I asked what I had done (sir). He replied, "You complained. If you don't like it here, you can leave." I chose not to confront him further just then, but after the party asked the GM if there was a posted rule/sign about how you can be thrown out if you politely complain. She responded that, yes, it was all about whether or not they like your attitude (no sign, apparently). Too much flak, or banter, or them just not liking you, and she frequently had thrown paying customers out of the place. The implication was clear that this could be me at any moment. I asked her to give a precise definition of the over-the-line behavior and she told me I was being threatening and would have to leave. She then moved between me and my daughter and my shoes and my diaper bag so that I had to carefully go around her to avoid any physical contact. She followed me and threatened to call the police. I pulled my phone from my diaper bag and stated I would record the rest of the encounter. She turned and walked away after informing me she was calling the sheriff. I gathered my kids and my things, thanked the party organizers, and left the business. As I was leaving in my car, the owner came out to photograph me, my car, my license plate, and tell me he would be pressing all charges possible; that it was not his first 'Rosemary Dance'. All of this occurred outside the building, in the parking lot, in front of my kids, as I was driving away, and I caught it on a video too large for Google to let me share here. This family-oriented play place is toxic, unfriendly, and unsafe to play because of the behavior of the owner and GM. Two sides to every story? More like a room full of people made uncomfortable by their rapid and threatening escalation to wasting peace officers' time plus many negative Google reviews with stories that range from hilarious to disturbing. 0/5 stars

I stopped in the climbing gym to utilize their weight/fitness area. Someone promptly helped me get checked in and paid for a day pass. It seems like they have some type of children's program happening before or at their opening hour so the gym was full of kids but mostly kept to one end of the wall. The wall had so much variety for its size - overhangs, bouldering routes, crack holds to simulate crack climbing, top rope and a cave like feel to part of it. The fitness gym and weight area is small but has plenty of equipment. I shared the space with 2 others and it was tight. However we were all friendly and understanding of the space and coexisted well. I would definitely return when in the area again.

The owners made sure the girls knew the basic commands and how to stay safe. Kids loved the experience and have been talking about it for days. If we lived in the area I would definitely be doing a membership. Lots of different route options, 2 auto-belay systems, bouldering opportunities all over, even a climbing treadmill which I didn't even know was a thing. When we were leaving the owners were changing up some hands holds and you can tell they do that often to keep things interesting for the regulars. Highly recommend!

We had a fantastic day with Gage as our climbing guide. It was not our first time climbing but we…read moreare also not super experienced in outdoor climbing. We chose a one day rock climbing experience at the Hoback river (AKA "the shield") for $600. They do offer half-day experiences but it's not much less money and given how different outdoor climbing is from indoors, and that if the weather is nice you can just take some breaks, I would recommend the full-day option if you are considering a one day rock climbing experience. Compared to climbing before this in Moab and considering our climb was not in the park (Tetons), it was still beautiful and felt more "customized" than our previous outdoor climb. Gage recommended routes but also took our input and was patient throughout the day to ensure a great experience. We also looked at Exum, who charged slightly more to climb around Jenny Lake (apparently the park only allows two permitted companies to operate in separate places around the Tetons), we ended up going with JH Mountain Guides and did not regret our decision. I would consider the multi-day climb in the future if we could save up the money for it and experience the beautiful views of the Tetons with these guys. We weren't totally sure of our level but the Shield offers a variety of different leveled climbs from 5.5 and up. As the day went on, and with Gages' incredible enthusiasm and support (super easy going guy), we gained confidence and ended the day on a 5.9 climb. Gage carried all the equipment and showed us a variety of climbing techniques during our day. A group of 3 (including the guide) is really perfect for this type of experience. JH Mountain Guides also climbs in another outside-the-park location which has more beginner routes. Given all the choices for outdoor activities and high costs to do anything in/around Jackson, rock climbing for a day with these guys is a solid choice that I would recommend to others.

Excellent guides! The very best climbers in the West, for sure! Our guide was patient with our…read moreskills and gave us the best advice for our ascent. I felt very safe- you'll be in good hands with JHMG!

Our guide said the rapids were more like Class III - I think this is typical later summer? But our boys are enthusiasts and want to go again (but more of Class IV) - it was pretty mild, but like I said, great 1st experience. Quick drive from Town Center in Big Sky - like 10 minutes. Do your waiver and payment on-line for seamless check-in. It was a nice day with obviously cold water - we didn't rent any special gear, and were totally fine. Water starts to feel good (at least if you have a nice day like we did). Wear your Teva's or water shoes! About a 20 minute drive to where you take off. Hope for a great guide - we had Kyle and he made our trip exceptional. We were going through dips and "whitewater" that other rafts were passing by. He was very experienced, had a great personality and had a lot of knowledge about the surroundings. Thanks Kyle!! Return is roughly 35 minutes back, where you can view your photos. The photographers are phenomenal, but pricey - $125 for all the digitals. There is an option to choose 1 or 3 photos, but there are so many great pic's, you'll want them all! Don't forget to bring cash to tip your guide - if you forget (like we did), you can Venmo. Great times.

We got the wet suits and booties which was only like $7/person total. I'd highly recommend getting it. Kept us warm. We did that Level 3-4. My kids are 16 and 19 and loved every bit and want to do it again. I felt like the level 3-4 was doable though we had some close calls. Out of the 6 raft's no one went over. Theses guides are skilled. The time is exhilarating and serene at the same time. You get to to tip your guide after. We also choose to get a digital photo which the photographer does an incredible job capturing our moments. After you get to enjoy some of the best hot chocolates in town or coffee. This establishment is legit. It's a bit pricey after everything is done but so worth the experience with the family!

The water is so clear. An incredible day with a high 70's and a mild cool breeze, made it a perfect day. You could see pockets of snow in the mountain valleys and an incredibly clear day. The leaves are turning and the yellows and reds are exploding. We spotted deer, bald eagles, hawks and martins. It was a spectacular weekend in Grand Teton National Park and the fall colors only added to the beauty. If you have a chance, get to the Grand Tetons for a glance at Roosevelt's dream of the beauty of the USA.

Jenny Lake boating, Colter Bay Village visitor's center, and Jackson Lake Lodge were all closed. The latter two even had all the restrooms boarded up! Bummer, especially since the weather was still super nice, sunny and 75°. Some of our favorite stops were Mormon Row, Cunningham Cabin Historic Site, Signal Mountain Summit, and Jenny Lake. The 42-mile Scenic Loop is a must and covers most of the park. There are many turnout and overlooks along the way with gorgeous views. My favorite visitor's center was the Craig Thomas Discovery and Visitor Center. It had everything...a museum with exhibits, gift shop, large restrooms, ranger information desk, and a big lobby area for sitting and enjoying the mountain range view through large windows. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our time at this national park. We would highly recommend!

Two of my buddies and I did snow school with Exum on 6/30/13. We were going to backpack the Teton…read moreCrest Trail starting the following day, and having no prior experience with alpine hiking, snow skills, self arrest, etc., we forked over the $170 each for an all day snow school session. We met our guide Mike and the assistant/training guide Pete at the base of the tram in Teton Village. There was one other person in snow school that day, a female who was going to summit the Grand that week, also with Exum. After introductions and gear distribution (helmets, ice axes, and crampons), we took the tram up. We had to hike about 2 miles left after getting off the tram to get to a snow covered high slope where we could practice on. That's when the "fun" began. Let me summarize: Snow school was TOUGH, both physically and mentally. I guess because of the somewhat benign-sounding name it conjured up images of making snow angels and snowball fights for me, but it was definitely not like that. All day we learned valuable alpine hiking skills -- e.g. traversing across steep snow, walking straight up and down steep snow, stopping a slide with hands and feet, and of course, self arrest -- feet downhill on stomach, feet downhill on back, head downhill on stomach (the hardest for me), and head downhill on back. This was tough and tiring stuff. But definitely valuable at the same time, all three of us felt much more comfortable by the end of the day. We also learned proper crampon use (even though we did not take crampons on our hike with us). We were spent at the end of the day, and the 2 mile mostly uphill hike back to the tram was brutal. But it was all worth it, definitely worth it. We had a safe and uneventful TCT backpacking trip starting the next day, and I honestly don't know if we'd have been able to complete it had we not done snow school with Exum. Mike and Pete were both excellent, good teachers, austere yet nice, and patient. I highly recommend Exum for those new to alpine hiking and mountaineering.

As a beginner to climbing, I was really looking forward to a motivating and supportive experience…read moreon my Grand Teton climb with Exum and our guide, Aili. Day 1 went well, with the climbing portion being successful, and Aili was happy with our (my husband's and my) climbing skills. I was upfront with my guide from the start, explaining that I prefer to hike at my own pace, which was a major reason we opted for a private guide. However, from the very beginning of the hike, I felt judged and had to constantly deal with negative comments (e.g., "come back next year," "we can go back and try to do some other climb"), implying I wouldn't make it and that my pace wasn't going to work. The guide informed me that if I couldn't complete a 5,000 ft elevation gain in 5 hours, I wouldn't be allowed to attempt the summit. I requested the option to at least hike to the Lower Saddle and allow my husband to continue to the summit, but I was told this wasn't possible. The guide insisted that with my pace, by the time we'd reach the saddle, I'd be too tired for a summit attempt, and it would be a long day. All I received were reasons why it wouldn't work, and not once did I hear suggestions on how to make the best out of this attempt. Eventually, I had to turn back halfway to at least allow my husband to get a fair attempt at the summit. The guide never attempted to understand my potential and was very demotivating throughout the experience. I'm not a novice hiker. This year alone, I've hiked the Manitou Incline , Barr Trail up to Barr Camp, a 13er in Colorado, and just two months ago, I summited Kilimanjaro. I was fully prepared to endure a long day and give my best effort, but I wasn't even given a fair chance. The overall experience was disheartening. This is my second year with Exum attempting this climb, and it's clear that Exum and their guides are not suited for beginners who are looking forward to a more personalized and life-changing experience. I do have to give credit for teaching instructions.
