Peter began his career in the outdoors as a mountaineering instructor
in Wyoming’s Wind River Range for the National Outdoor Leadership
School (NOLS) in the summer of ’98. Alternately working for NOLS
and as a lead instructor in the Maine Bound Program at the University
of Maine, he developed his skills and depth of experience on rock, ice,
and snow. Since then he has worked for Acadia Mountain Guides in Maine,
International Mountain Climbing School in North Conway, NH and Sierra
Mountain Guides based in CA.
Personal climbing has included lengthy trips all over the western United
States Italian Dolomites, Canadian Rockies, Coast Range in British Columbia,
Swiss Alps including first ascents of ice routes in the Sichuan Province
of China, and most recently, Alaska where he, Ben Gilmore, and Freddie
Wilkinson climbed the first ascent of Mount Foraker’s Fin Wall.
“Climbing, for me, is as much about who I’m climbing with
as what or where I’m climbing. Though I find it inspiring to travel
and “explore steepness” the most influential element in any
climbing experience is who it’s shared with.” |
