Jess was an incredible tour guide. She made us feel contained and safe without losing the feeling of adventure that we had undertaken. Her knowledge and passion for every single detail in nature was so transparent it gave me the experience of being more aware of how alive and unique the environment we were in truly was. If I think back on the trip, my most memorable image of Jess is her wonderful connection with nature that has left a lasting imprint on how I engage with the natural environment. In terms of logistics and skill in first aid and navigation she was so capable that there was never a small moment of unease.
