AMGA Certified Single Pitch Instructor, Apprentice Rock Guide

Noah discovered climbing while studying Business and Emergency Medical Services at the University of Vermont. During this time he started climbing in an effort to be more well rounded for ski mountaineering. Noah is equally happy slotting cams on long multi pitch routes as he is traversing the Knife Edge of Mt. Katahdin with skis on his back. Noah is actively pursuing the guide track and continues to hone his craft with course work through The American Mountain Guides Association. Noah is an AMGA Apprentice Rock Guide, AMGA SPI, Pro 1 Avalanche certificate holder, Wilderness First Responder, Leave No Trace Master Educator and has completed a NOLS Outdoor Educator Mountaineering course. Noah has climbed extensively in the Adirondack mountains of New York, Green mountains of Vermont, and White mountains of New Hampshire. He has taken multiple trips to Mt. Katahdin in Maine during both the summer and winter months. Noah has also spent time skiing and alpine climbing throughout the Cascades of Washington and Chic-Choc mountains of Quebec. He has spent significant amounts of time rock climbing in Squamish BC, Index WA, and Smith Rock OR. Noah enjoys sharing the adventurous nature of climbing with clients regardless of their experience or skill level. Helping guests to accomplish their goals and develop an appreciation for the minutiae of climbing is what motivates Noah.
