James Stover
AMGA Single Pitch Instructor
City: Grand Junction
Province: CO
Bio: Climber with close to thirty years of experience, with trips to the big arenas and greater ranges as a younger man, I have been in a corporate world for the last 15 years; covid has given me a chance and opportunity to do something else. My wife has run a lake/river outfitting business for the last four years. Our business is growing and we are looking to add guided climbing to the arena of services we offer. I am looking to increase my knowledge of industry standards and grow as a professional with enough experience to be able to look for additional guiding work out side of our busy summer . I am an expert skier with previous ski patrol experience. I have extensive experience climbing on both rock and ice in Western Colorado.
