Anouk Erni
AMGA/IFMGA Certified Mountain Guide
I grew up in the mountains of Switzerland, but California is where my passion for climbing began. I have been lucky enough to climb and ski in two of the most beautiful and adventurous places on Earth, and I can't wait to share my love and knowledge of these regions with you!
"Anouk is the best guide I've ever had and I've done a lot of guided trips. This is my 3rd trip with her and now I'm spoiled for all other guides. She is personable and patient, and also incredibly skilled. It was amazing watching her and learning from her technique. Finally, she instilled confidence - her confident ropework and smooth transitions eliminated any anxiety. And her cooking and conversation were great! "

"Amazing experience...Anouk was awesome. Made the long day very enjoyable. Had great knowledge and skill to make the trip fun and safe. Had great patience and taught/reinforced alpine skills that I was trying to get out of this trip."
