Competent, knowledgeable mountain guides with a focus on safe trips arranged according to the group's level. Good to facilitate the day, where both the feeling of experiencing the magnificent landscape and cool descents is prioritized ☃️

Excellent guides that will take you safely up beautiful mountains and lead you down white-powder slopes matching your skiing level and ambitions. The competence, friendliness and positive energy make you want to come back next year.

These guides will take you great places to «earn your turns». Good knowledge about the mountain and conditions. An excellent guide team for versified experiences. Want to go steep and rough - go with the Alaskan energy bundle. Want somewhat more a mellow mountain experience - follow the down to earth Norwegian blonde.

My favourite guides. They bring you up the safest route, and then one of them take you down faster than she drives a car.
