Worked with KAF to rent some outdoor gear while I was visiting the Seattle area for work. They are great! My schedule didn't allow me to get outfitted during normal hours but Mick worked with me to get what I needed! We were supposed to take their intro ice climbing course but was cancelled due to High Avalanche conditions so can't comment on the course but Dave was quick to call us and let us know the status. However, they were very smooth and very cool to refund me my money Thanks Joel!!! Will try to work with them again the next time I'm in the Seattle Area! Sad I couldn't ice climb but KAF's customer service was great!

After doing a survey of the multiple mountaineering instructors in the Seattle area I decided on Kaf for a custom Mountaineering 1-Day course to prepare my group for some early season backpacking in the Cascades. I was very impressed with the level of pre trip assistance and coordination. Our guide was very knowledgeable and helpful. More than happy to answer all the questions we had for him. We were so impressed with them we signed up for another climb later in the summer!

We had an intro to outdoor climbing class with Archer and he was the absolute best. He was super knowledgeable and patient while we asked him a million questions. We learned a ton and he was encouraging without pushing us beyond our limits. I feel like he set us up for becoming better climbers in the future.

I've had two wonderful rock climbing experiences with Mick Pearson and KAF Adventures. He and his team are positive, energetic, patient, encouraging, and fun instructors - they can take a total climbing beginner to a skilled and safe climber by the end of the day. They infuse fun into each experience, which makes you personally connect with Mick and his team. When you're trusting your life in their hands, this goes a long way to making you love your adventure with them. Most recently, I had the privilege of experiencing Mick and Trevor's creation of a custom rock climbing day for my bachelorette party. It was the perfect day! They taught all 6 of the ladies in the group how to climb confidently and helped to push us so we were challenged but had a blast the entire time. They also pulled out their creativity to make the day a most memorable experience (complete with celebratory treats, light-up tiaras, and suspenders...=)...). Love these guys! Will definitely be back, and will refer all my friends.
