Welcome

Cirrus Alpine Guides specialize in guided Backcountry Ski touring and Ice climbing.
All Guides are local experienced Mountain or Ski Guides.

We are taking bookings for Backcountry Ski Touring Adventures, Ice Climbing, and Avalanche Safety Programs for the 2018-19 season.

Looks like a weak La Nina this winter, the jet stream is normally weaker than usual meaning Arctic air will hang around as above normal precipitation falls overhead. Great conditions for powder hounds.

Check out the site for more information.
Call or email if you want to get out and enjoy the mountains this winter.

"With the 2 day trips you get in a lot of climbing in a short amount of time. You go into the Bugs "light and fast"!"
"I highly recommend Mark as a guide. His skill level and experience would be difficult to match.""
