About Good Mountain Adventures
Good Mountain Adventures started after nearly a decade of guiding visitors through Colorado — from whitewater rafting on the Arkansas River to guiding hikes in the National Parks. Our founder, Dylan Good, has guided over 5,000 visitors through Rocky Mountain National Park.
Also guiding trips is Meghan O’Donnell. Meghan has solo traveled through five continents and 50 countries. On her travels, she came to appreciate the impact a great guide can have on a travel experience, and decided to pay it forward by helping visitors discover the beauty of Colorado. A Colorado resident for 16 years, Meghan has been guiding hikes since 2024. When she’s not on the trail, you’ll find her leading our marketing efforts or hanging out with her three dogs (usually somewhere in the mountains).
Professional Guides
All of our guides are CPR + First Aid certified.
Good Mountain Adventures is authorized by the National Park Service, U.S. Department of the Interior, to conduct services in Rocky Mountain National Park.
