Bio: Chris is an IFMGA Mountain Guide and alpinist who splits his time between obsessions with climbing, skiing and eating. At home most of the time in Bend, OR and Chamonix, France, Chris has finally figured out how to use the holds at Smith Rock and has climbed, guided, and skied across the world from the US to Nepal, and from Alaska to New Zealand, Australia, Europe, Asia, Africa, Mexico and Canada. Chris has established new routes from Oregon to Norway, Alaska, and the Himalaya and his guiding career has taken him from Ouray to Denali to the Alps, and up and down Mt. Hood too many times to count.
