Come join me on my next ski adventure! From Chamonix powder to remote expeditions, check out what I can offer. I specialise in guiding small groups of experienced skiers looking to gain additional skills and knowledge or to push themselves in more technical terrain. The Mont Blanc Massif is my playground and my intimate knowledge of the area allows me to take skiers who are ready for it, on some of it’s most challenging descents. However, Chamonix isn’t all about extreme skiing and there really is something for everyone.
Chamonix Freeride
Do you dream of powder filled couloirs, making fresh turns in a pristine glacial landscape or charging around the best and most secluded tree runs? Or have you long wanted to ski the world’s most famous off-piste run, the legendary 20 km long Vallee Blanche?
Then look no further. With well over a decade of local knowledge behind me, the Mont Blanc Massif is my backyard and playground year round. Almost everyday from November to May I’m either guiding or searching out the best snow and lines for my own enjoyment. This means I’m able to find the best conditions to suit your ability. No matter what your freeride level I can tailor an adventure to your requirements. Whether you want to cruise down the famous Vallee Blanche stopping for a relaxing lunch on the way down, or whether you are a pro skier or ex pro racer looking to be shown the best spots, I would love to show you my favorite local spots.
I place a strong emphasis on finding the best conditions while maintaining a very solid safety margin. Freeriding is full of potential hazards such as avalanche danger, crevasses and cliffs. First and foremost your safety is my priority.
Previous off-piste experience is required. Please email me for more details.
Prices start at 550 euros a day, please send an enquiry for an exact quote.

Steep Skiing: Guided Descents and Coaching
Not for everyone, this is for already experienced off-piste skiers looking to get into steep skiing for the first time or to progress their steep skiing to the next level. From practicing your first steep turns on an easy couloir to skiing mythical Chamonix classics like the North Face of the Midi, I can match your skill level and ambitions, pushing you just enough while keeping you safe in a serious and dynamic environment. If you are already a strong independent steep skier but lack a strong partner for your dream objective, then I would love to hear from you and see what we can do together.
Prices start at 600 euros/day and depend on the objective.
Max group size 2 guests and myself.
Ski Mountaineering
Ski mountaineering is the pursuit of backcountry skiing where mountaineering techniques are also needed. This always us to scale high alpine peaks to access untouched descents and hidden couloirs. This could involve rappelling into lines, climbing with crampons and ice axes and using a rope to safeguard passages. I cater to a wide variety of skill levels and there are objectives throughout the Alps to suit many different tastes and skill levels. From Mont Blanc and Monterosa to many lesser known technical summits, let me take you to the rarefied heights of the Alps with skis strapped to your back.
Prices depend on the objective, please inquire directly. Previous off piste experience is needed and some mountaineering experience is useful but not essential. Maximum group size 2 guests and myself.
Classic Ski Touring
I offer custom ski tours worldwide. From the multi-day tours such as the Haute Route in the Alps to day tours from a sailboat in arctic Norway, I can put together your dream ski touring trip.
Prices start at 550 euros/day but vary according to objective and group size, please inquiry directly. Maximum group size 6.
Personalized Coaching
I am first and foremost a dedicated and passionate skier. I pride myself in having a high technical ski level and there is nothing I love more than to coach my clients to become better skiers themselves. Whether you are after specific help with off-piste technique or want to develop your mountain skills such as rope-work, crevasses rescue and avalanche search and rescue, I can tailor a day’s or a week’s course to suit your needs.
Prices start at 550 euros per day for 1:1, 600 2:1, 650 3:1
