Explore the Mountains with Pika Mountain Guides
As your personal guide to the mountains, I can't wait to ski and climb with you! Having grown up in the US and Europe, I've found that each place is unique when it comes to adventuring. Whether it's the wild and rugged peaks of California's High Sierra, or the vast glaciated ranges in the Swiss Alps, there is a trip of a lifetime that can be tailored to anyone. While trip options are vast, my specialty, being a native of both California and Switzerland, is exposing my guests to the hidden gems and off-the-beaten-path experiences, best not shared with the crowds.
Your Trusted Mountain Guide
As owner and operator of Pika Mountain Guides, it is my mission to provide my guests with memorable and fantastic journeys through the mountains. As an IFMGA Aspirant Mountain Guide, I am certified and stoked to guide you on aesthetic multi-pitch rock climbs, adventurous multi-day technical alpine routes and traverses, and beautiful ski tours over glaciers and down couloirs. My trips are central to California, Norway, Switzerland, and Japan, however I will be expanding to new zones in 2026.


Unleash Your Adventurous Spirit
It's time to tackle that bucket list! From skiing and sailing in the Arctic Circle, or hut-to-hut alpine traverses in the Swiss Alps, to long powder ski descents ending in luxurious hot springs in Hokkaido, let's plan that trip you've always dreamed about!

Your safety and satisfaction are top priority here at Pika Mountain Guides. You can be confident that your trip will be to the highest standard when it comes to safety and quality. As an AMGA / IFMGA trained guide, I operate at the standard of practice of the most recognized and respected international federation of mountain guide associations. Your success is my success as you accomplish your goals.
