Mountain Guide

Based in the Coast Range, near Vancouver, BC, I offer custom private ski touring adventures for any size of group. I can craft an experience suitable for your experience levels and goals. From single day introductory tours in the Whistler/Blackcomb backcountry, to multi-day tent-based traverses, to heli accessed ski mountaineering base camps, let me create the trip of a lifetime for you!

I have guided extensively throughout the mountain ranges of British Columbia and Alberta, for numerous heli, snowcat and ski touring operations.

I also work closely with a number of backcountry ski touring lodges across BC, including Whitecap Alpine. I can facilitate your lodge-based trip, including scheduling, logistics, transport, food and guiding (of course). There’s really nothing quite like a lodge ski trip with your closest friends, a great chef and plenty of powder to ski.

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
