Guiding

Putting people on rocks and smiles on faces while responsibly managing risk.

Ok, it’s a bit more than that… As a rock climbing guide and instructor, I facilitate incredible experiences in stunning places that push you mentally and physically, all while, responsibly, managing the risks involved. With experience in almost every aspect of climbing instruction, whether introducing first-timers to the sport, training National Park Service wildlife rangers on rope & anchor building skills, or leading experienced climbers into new terrain, I am able to deliver a customizable experience based purely upon your desires for a memorable day.

I have also guided numerous overnight backpacking and kayaking adventures, while being directly responsible for the wide-array of planning tasks necessary for successful adventure-travel excursions (route planning, providing gear to participants, food planning & preparation, trip registration, transportation logistics, and permitting within public lands).
