Hi! My name is Kim, and I've been a hiking guide in this area for 30 years, probably longer than you've been alive! I think being a hiking guide is the best job in the world: the beauty of nature, super interesting people, the sun, the clouds, the scenery, and everything else that makes the Great Outdoors great. I especially love Zion National Park and I would love to show it to you, since you and I are on a "middle-name" basis. Of course, you can't be a guide for 30 years without getting to know a thing or two about this area. I've studied the geology, biology, and history of this area extensively, and I want to share it with you, along with the 300 jokes that I've memorized. I've hiked and explored Zion at least a gazillion times, and possibly 1. 5 gazillion, so I think I know the area fairly well. I've come as a guide for 2 different local destination spas, and Road Scholar (a bus/hiking tour company mostly for seniors) where I worked as the geology instructor and trail guide. Being out on the trail is what I live for and I hope you give me a chance to share all of that with you! I have all the necessary permits, insurances, licenses, etc. necessary, as well as first aid and CPR certification All guiding services are restricted to certain trails, though these happen to be the most popular trails in the park.

    The Narrows tour was made that much better by having a guide such as Kim Waggoner. He helped our large family group with his knowledge, skill and humor. He is not only a guide, but an entertainer. He kept us laughing the whole trip and was great at pointing us in the right direction while walking in the river as he pointed out landmarks and sights.

    Bryce Canyon is an outstanding take and its made better with Kim leading us with his incredible knowledge of the plants, geology, and history of the area. We had a large group with two children ages 8 and 10, Kim brought us to appropriate family hikes that kept us all enthralled at what we saw. One of our favorite places we have ever visited. Its hard to imagine not...
