Bio: Marty began climbing in 1988, and guiding in 1991. His first visit to the Gunks was during Columbus Day weekend in 1990. After a good number of return visits, he began guiding there in the fall of 1995 commuting (from his hometown in PA) for work until moving to the Gunks in 1997. During the season of 1997, he worked part time at Rock and Snow until becoming a Level One Certified Rock Guide in October. From then on, he has guided full-time and considers himself lucky to be able to live the dream. He has shared the experience of climbing with many guests at many different locations throughout the country - some guests have climbed with him regularly for over 17 years. Over that time they have swapped leads, shared experiences, grown friendships, and set future climbing goals. While he enjoys all types of climbing, he prefers the solitude, self-reliance, and commitment you gain from climbing traditional multi-pitch routes. Marty is currently a certified Rock and Alpine guide and founded and operates Alpine Endeavors, LLC. An AMGA accredited program.
