Meet A Few Of Our Guides

Rob

Rob calls the mighty San Juan Mountains in southwestern Colorado home. No matter what time of the year it is, you can catch Rob outside. The San Juan Mountains offer endless opportunities for mountain biking, hiking, climbing, and camping as the sun shines an average of 250 days of the year. Rob is
working towards being a climbing and mountain guide for the summer months and is currently a ski guide and avalanche professional in the winter months.

Trask

Trask grew up in Missoula, Montana where he spent most of his formative years playing outside.
As a young man, he learned the ropes of guiding as a llama packer in Yellowstone. Trask has spent the last 10 years working for the National Outdoor Leadership School (NOLS) all around the North American continent. When he is not guiding, climbing, mountain biking… He can be found gardening and building hand-built snowboards in his home base: Missoula.

Lexie

Lexie is happiest when her Chaco-ed feet are covered in dirt and tan lines. She moved west several years ago to pursue careers that would let her explore and teach outside through guiding and environmental education. She’s put down roots in many states since then, working and recreating in every state between Alaska and Arizona. She now calls Montana home because she can’t get enough of her wildlife neighbors and falling asleep in her tent under the biggest star-filled sky.

Britta

Hi, I’m Britta. Currently, living the dream in Sedona, AZ as a Mountain Bike Guide and Instructor. Outdoor adventure has always been a part of my life since I was a kid, from family camping and ski trips to road trips across the country. Though, I love to dabble in all kinds of outdoor activities like alpine skiing, kayaking, and hiking – you can primarily find me on my bike searching for a challenging section of trail or signing up for a local XC race. I have an innate passion for helping others cultivate their love for the outdoors. I built a MTB program for at-risk youth and am dedicated to encouraging others to build confidence and challenge their comfort level when it comes to exploring in the outdoors.

Sean

Sean has spent almost his entire life exploring the White Mountains of New Hampshire, and can still be found romping around the Northeast with rope, skis, and a deep connection to the area. As a climbing guide and outdoor educator Sean has been paying forward wonderful experiences gathered through a life in the mountains and woods of New England.
