Welcome!

Imagine hiking to an alpine meadow full of beautiful wildflowers, cresting a mountain ridge with an awe-inspiring view, or standing on the edge of a majestic alpine lake watching a trout rise to feed on the surface.

In my travels around the globe to hike, backpack and fly fish, I've come to appreciate guides with local knowledge. As a born and raised Calgarian, the Foothills and the Rocky Mountains of Southern Alberta have been my local playground for over 40 years—and it's my passion to share my love of this area with others.

I'm a Hiking Guide with the Association of Canadian Mountain Guides, an Interpretive Guide with the Interpretive Guides Association, and an active member of the Angling Outfitters and Guides Association of Alberta. As a certified guide, your safety and satisfaction are my highest priority.

To create a truly memorable experience, I believe in a collaborative tour planning process. So let's get started creating your ideal adventure!

Please contact me directly for any additional questions you might have, or to book your next alpine experience.
