Mountaineering - Bugaboo Alpine Adventures

Mountaineering

Picture yourself walking on a high snowy ridge with a sea of clouds below. Imagine climbing high on a mountain while the sky changes color as the first rays of sun bring their warmth. Experience the thrill of reaching a summit after a challenging climb. Descend early in the day while the conditions are still perfect, reaching the valley with an

ample safety margin. These are some of the memories that have kept me coming back to the mountains for 20 years.

Mountaineering is the combination of a variety of skills including rock climbing, ice climbing, glacier travel and general fitness used to reach a summit. It also requires knowledge and judgement to know which peaks are in condition and when it is safe to continue. Because many people have only some of these skills the summits remain elusive. As a full time guide and mountaineer, my experience will give you the best chance of attaining the summit.

I can teach you the snow, ice and rock techniques required to climb a mountain and then help you choose an appropriate goal. If you have some experience but lack the confidence to attempt the more difficult peaks, let me show you the way. I have climbed extensively in the Canadian Rockies, Alps and other ranges in the world. You will be amazed at what you can climb with the benefit of my experience and local knowledge.

I specialize in custom trips to the Canadian Rockies and the European Alps. Talk to me about designing a trip to suit your goals, abilities and schedule. Climb the mountain you have always dreamed of; Mount Robson, Mount Assiniboine, the Eiger or the Matterhorn. Let me show you some of my favorite, less known places in the mountains.
