Description
If you aim to do La Patrouille des Glaciers (PDG) during April, take the time to prepare yourself to enjoy the race to the maximum. Whether it is for the small or the large route, we will share one or more days to tackle this race better.
We will meet in the morning to check the equipment. Then we will go to one of the passages of the race (Verbier or Arolla for example). We will have a short summary on managing avalanches. In addition, we’ll address different topics depending on your needs.
We can do this preparation together during several days. In this way, we get acclimatized and tackle more specific topics.

About the guide
Attracted by the mountains since childhood, I started with climbing and alpinism. I then discovered my passion for ski touring.
I started a Young&Sport instructor training to lead young people in the mountain, accompanied by guides. This experience inspired me to become a mountain guide, and I got certified in September 2015.
I work in a guide's office with other guides friends as Stéphane, Raphael, Christian and Jean-Luc, mountain leader.
What I love the most: make people enjoy, allow them to discover a region, laughing, everything in a safe way.
So if there's something you wish, if you dream of exploring a region or country, don't hesitate to contact me.
See you soon for new discoveries!
