HOW IS YOUR CLIMBING?
Every Climber Should hire a Certified Mountain Guide or
Mountain Guiding Company!
From Denali to Everest, from South America to Asia, from New Zealand to Thailand, from your local crag to the Ice Park in Ouray, Colorado, this directory will help you locate a guide to hire for your first, or perhaps your next dream climb or Ski. Whether you are looking for climbing instruction, a guide to coach you while on-route to improve your current climbing technique and safety skills, to join an organized expedition, to experience a different genre of climbing, or if you are just looking to partner with an experienced climber/comrade/guide to work together on a classic mountain climb, you will find your certified mountain guide or guide agency listed here with the Mountain Guide Bureau. Whether you climb or ski 200 days a year, or three days a year, every climber should occasionally invest in the experiential and academic resources offered by the professional mountain guiding community. Your current technique, knowledge of technical systems, safety precautions, and mountain sense can always benefit from interaction with a mountain guide, and should be a frequent ingredient in your climbing endeavors, for as long as you participate in climbing.
HOW TO SEARCH FOR GUIDES IN OUR DIRECTORY
With our site, it is easy to search and locate a guide or guiding company by name, type of climbing, base location, field of discipline, or a particular climbing destination, world-wide. Your search will identify and produce a narrowed choice of guides for which you can then inquire, with each guide or company directly, via a direct link to their website, email, or by phone, so that you may begin to evaluate which provider of mountain guiding will be the best fit for your objectives. THREE WAYS TO SEARCH: If you know the name of a guide or company and wish to review their profile and contact information, use the WHITE BOX search at the top right, by typing in the name you are looking for. If you don't know the name, but can recognize a guide's or companies name when you see it, use the alphabetical GUIDE DIRECTORY found in the menu. If you wish to search for all guides and companies that match your choices of available critiera, access the FIND A GUIDE function the the menu.
WHO ARE THE GUIDES AND GUIDING COMPANIES LISTED ON THIS SITE
The Mountain Guide Bureau's directory is a complementary, unpaid service for all individual guides certified by a UIAGM member organization, or licensed mountain guiding companies that generate at least 80% of its guiding revenues from roped climbing or off-piste skiing. The primary purpose of this site is to provide a complementary service for potential guiding customers (users of this site) who wish to locate a guide to hire. The Mountain Guide Bureau is not a broker of mountain guiding services, a placement service, nor do we recommend one mountain guiding provider over another. Results from guide searches on this site are generated based on a specific match to your choices of criteria, and are then listed in alphabetical order. It is up to the user to then inquire with each individual provider of guiding services, and make a decision to hire your guide based on your own informed evaluation, and personal preferences.
