PeakSTRATAGEM.... Guiding, Instruction, Adventure

I met Brent (and Vicky) on Sunshine village this year. I just got into ski touring and saw them skinning up Goats Eye. I asked them a few questions and they were very eager and helpful answering them. I decided to do my AST 1 through Peak Stratagem with Brent and I found it very enjoyable and informative. Later in the season I decided to complete my AST 2 as well over the course of two weekends with Brent (and Vicky). Brent was very professional, knowledgeable and helpful. Again, the days during the course were very enjoyable and informative. Not only did I learn a lot, I also really enjoyed the course. Brent is an exceptional instructor and guide and I highly recommend Peak Stratagem.

Personable, great guide to work with. Guides you into becoming your own problem solver. He gives you the right tools and instruction to think critically about your decision-making in the mountains. That’s a skill more valuable than any athletic or technical skill. And they’re a hoot to boot! ;-)

I did a one day Backcountry Ski Technique course with Brent and it was awesome. My skiing really did improve from a single day of instruction. I am looking at doing more courses with Peak Stratagem in the future as Brent's enthusiasm for sharing knowledge was excellent.

She is the best! Very knowledgeable local.

Have used Peak for 3 days of 1 on 1 guiding to work on Trad and Alpine skills. Brent and Maarten know my goals and have set up a good mentorship type program for myself. They spend time on developing your skills and suggesting improvements. Very excited to continue this relationship.
