Spencer Purvis
AMGA Single Pitch Instructor
City: Ouray
Province: CO
Bio: Despite 15 years in Colorado my Southern Accent remains thick. However my home is amongst the peaks of the local San Juan Range here in SW Colorado. I am entering my 4th year of full time guide work and making my way through the AMGA Rock and Alpine disciplines. Some years I favor the local Winter Ice climbs and other years I aspire for challenging rock and Alpine routes. My son Ryder just turned 1, and so most of my guiding happens here in Ouray. However, Spring trips to the Alaskan range and summer climbs in Colorado’s Front Range provide some diversity. If your looking for a SW Colorado guide for rock, ice and alpine objectives, I’m your man!
