Testimonial from one of our guide training students:
Dear Zeke,
I had a great week. It was really interesting to
experience both your and Seth's teaching style and really get
into the style and detail orientation of the PCGI curriculum.
As I said to Seth, after 18 years, I still have a lot to
learn and am very pleased to be officially a Certified Lead Guide with PCGI. I do look
forward to auditing a TRG course and taking the MPG course, possibly in WY in
June. Or pushing for one in our area under our permits...we'll have to see.
Calvin, Rob, and I are preparing some notes and reviews
for both of you, the course material, and the PCGI at large and will send that
off after the weekend.
I look forward to pushing this relationship further.
Humble Z

PS. I am working up the VID and picts and will ship off a
DVD to both you and Seth this coming week.
