Guiding Agency

My primary concern as your guide is your safety. With that comes a great deal of fun, learning and engaging in experiences that will be memorable for a lifetime. I hope to have the opportunity to climb with you and help you achieve climbs, summits and experiences not yet imagined!

For over two decades, I have guided extensively throughout the U.S., Canada, Alaska, the Andes and Himalaya. In the U.S. I work for the companies listed below for much of the private guiding I do. I recently obtained permits and insurance through the Certified Guide Federation to guide independently in the areas listed. If you have specific crag, mountain or part of the world you would like to climb or trek, I can usually work with the local guide service.
