The Guides


Here is a small list of UIAGM mountain guides that are awesome and fun to be with in the mountains.

Olivier Roduit is a guide also living in this valley. Olivier and I often work together on trips. He wrote a climbing guide book for this and the neighboring valleys.

GIlbert Hiroz lives in Verbier and knows these hills like the back of his hand. The master of understatement and a really nice guy to be with.

Stephen Hadik is another guide living in Verbier who is always ready to go out for a climb.

David Michaud lives in Verbier and is really nice to be with. He does a good job of entertaining while guiding.

Marie Hiroz, living in Verbier, has a unique way of taking her clients here and there. It's always nice to meet her high in the hills.

Doug Coombs passed away, skiing in 2006. He was a buddy of mine from way back. He worked out of La Grave and Jackson Hole and was instrumental in starting the whole Valdez, Alaska scene. Doug and I organized two superb weeks of heli-skiing in Greenland. It is very difficult to believe this guy, with so much character, is really gone.

John Falkiner- The one and only, the real thing, John Falkiner. Do I need to say more about this classic dude?

Kathy Cosley and Mark Houston are two American certified guides who are really nice to be with. Their site is incredibly informative!
