The mountain guide exists at the intersection of knowledge, preparedness, and a love for the mountains. Early rising, ensuring equipment is in order, and the journey is mapped, guides help us create some of our most memorable mountain experiences, often becoming lifelong friends along the way.
Over the coming weeks, this new series from Alps & Meters will explore the lives of guides in the summer. These guides will take us on some memorable mountain adventures, from horseback to horsepower, showcasing the many activities that make summer in the mountains a true delight.
