In 2013 Adam made his way out to the Cascade Mountains of Oregon seeking to do just that. Initially landing in Portland, Oregon, Adam began work at the Portland Rock Gym, where he became the gym's Head of Instruction and Outdoor Programs. During the next few years Adam would help to shape and grow the gym's brand new guiding program "PRG Guides". In March of 2017 Adam and his wife moved to Bend, Oregon, a central hub of outdoor activity in the Cascade Mountains. Here Adam has partnered with the Timberline Mountain Guides and Smith Rock Climbing School to continue his work of providing safe and memorable experiences to all of you excellent people.
