Three ways
to reach me.
Yosemite Life is a sole-operator business. The same person answers all three channels. That person is Eric. He's also the person on the trail with you.
Free 15-min Zoom
with Eric.
The fastest way to figure out which trip is right for you. We'll talk fitness, dates, goals, and any questions. No pressure, no upsell. Most of my bookings start here.

Not an answering service, not a Google Voice routing. It's my phone. Texts welcomed and often the fastest channel, especially when I'm in the field and can't pick up.

Often within an hour
Send an email.
For longer questions, gear inquiries, custom-trip ideas. The kind of thing that needs more than a text. I read everything that comes in and reply personally.
Under 24 hr
Or send it in writing.
For questions that need a bit more room than a text message. I'll reply within 24 hours, usually faster.
General response window
Under 24 hours
If you haven't heard from me within a day, something went wrong with the message. Try a different channel.
When I'm in the backcountry
Up to 5 days delay
I'm running guided trips most weekends. Texts often still get through (inReach satellite), but expect a delay for replies in those windows.
Time zone
Pacific Time (UTC -8 / -7)
I'm based in California, but happy to take a Zoom call at whatever hour works for you. Just say the hour.
Most bookings start with a Zoom.
