David has been hiking and skiing Mount Shasta for many years and finally moved to the area in 2008. In 2004 and 2005 David was a tour guide for Earth Wisdom in Sedona, AZ where he lead Medicine Wheel and Earth Wisdom Tours for connecting with the earth at sacred sites. This work included sweat lodges, wedding ceremonies and other sacred gatherings.

While in Sedona he was also involved with scientific study using instruments that determine the frequency of the land, ley lines and vortex energy and how those energies move in, through and around the contours of the Earth. He is also interested in the harmony found in sacred geometry and the resonance fields that are innate within nature, using these aspects for self integration and healing.

David enjoys sharing his knowledge of the natural energies innate in water and the devic energies encompassing springs. His inspiration comes from Viktor Schauberger, whose work is compiled in the book, “Hidden Nature” by Alick Bartholomew. His areas of spiritual studies include the Rosicrucian, Kabbala, Saint Germain Foundation and Toltec teachings. On a tour, David provides an experiential opportunity to integrate these concepts so you can, in turn, take this knowledge and the healing experience gained on Mount Shasta home with you.

David offers:
• Exploratory Hikes
• Sacred Site Treks
• Back Country Ski Trips

Exploratory Hikes: Pack a lunch, bring your day pack and come explore the wonders of the second highest mountain in the Cascade Range with us. Hike the varied low elevation terrains (8,500 feet and below) of 14,162 foot high Mount Shasta, including the Old Ski Bowl Trails, Wagon Camp Road, Grey Butte, Green Butte, the Sierra Club Hut, Sand Flat, lower North Gate trailhead, and much more. Discover hidden springs, meadows, old growth forests, alpine wildflowers, the mountain's unique geological history, and the still peace and quiet to be found away from the maddening crowd.

Discover the many natural treasures hidden in The Eddys mountain range, Deadfall Lakes, Gumboot Lake, Lake Siskiyou, Box Canyon Dam, Castle Lake, Castle Crags State Park, and more. Enjoy the many enticing waterfalls of the Sacramento and McCloud Rivers and take a dip (if you dare) in their cool, refreshing alpine waters. Let us know what you'd like to experience, and we'll do our best to help you accomplish that. Or, let our guides surprise you by taking you to one of their favorite spots.

Sacred Site Treks are light to medium impact half or full-day journeys designed specifically for you or your group at beautiful, serene, awe inspiring sacred sites in the Mt. Shasta area. Treks may include guided meditations, toning, connecting with the power of springs and nature in general, intuitive messages received from Spirit, and local myths, legends and history.

Back Country Snowshoe Trips are half or full day outings designed to introduce you the art and beauty of snowshoeing. Steve also encourages you to put your thoughts aside and be fully present in the magnificence of nature. You will learn how to be in the elements, conserve energy and break trail, as well as the basics of climbing, side stepping, kick turning, duck walking, and using skins.
