I’ve been learning from Keith since 2021. I’ve taken multi day avalanche courses, and had many objective focused and skill focused days and multi-day outings for ice climbing, rock climbing, skiing. I make time in each season to get days with Keith, because he tailors his teaching style to you and to your objectives for the day, but also for your goals across seasons and future adventures you may have planned. His gear and kit is always professional; He’s always on time; His communication is excellent. I highly recommend Keith and his team.

A day that far exceeded my expectations!
Before Keith and I even met up, I was impressed and appreciated Keith’s flexibility in scheduling to make my trip. We worked around a few different weather situations that would have been a bummer.
Ultimately, the waiting paid off for a bluebird day to knock out a Peak to Parking Lot, something that had been on my bucket list for three years.
Despite the volume of touring and skiing, Keith was friendly and knowledgeable. He greatly expanded my comfort and speed of travel in the steeps/side angles and I left the day feeling much more comfortable in my ability to move in the mountains.
Can’t recommend enough!

Keith is amazing and I can’t recommend him enough! My climbing partner and I were looking for a guide who could help us prepare for our own adventures. Keith guided us on two multi-pitch adventures, on Cathedral Ledge and Mount Washington. We were able to repeat both trips on our own, safely and quickly, which was our goal. I learned an enormous amount working with Keith, such as micro-route finding, better rope management, and suggestions for easier anchor building. We will definitely work with Keith again for another fun adventure.
