Satisfied Clients

"When I came to Alan, I had absolutely no climbing experience, and I only dreamed of climbing Mount Everest as a teenager. Initially, I thought I’d look stupid being 18, having no experience, and wanting to climb Everest, but Alan was extremely welcoming and supportive right off the bat. Despite my initial inexperience and being out of shape, Alan provided me with all of the insights and training I would need to summit Mount Everest at 19. He guided me every single step of the way, all the way to the top, and I’m extremely grateful to have a coach and mentor like him. He truly gives great advice, insights, and knowledge about mountaineering and what it takes to climb the world’s highest peaks. I seriously couldn’t have done it without him!" Ryan - 2024 Everest summit at age 19

"I got in contact with Alan in September 2023 consulting about a potential Everest expedition in the spring of 2024. Alan has extensive knowledge and experience on mountaineering, and provided valuable advice and recommendations based on the individual profile of his clients. Alan helped me make up my mind on an Everest expedition, choose the right guiding company, and provide me with the key points in terms of technical, physical and mental preparation for Everest. We had been working together all the way and we kept in touch during my Everest expedition. Alan was able to give me feedback and suggestions timely whenever I had questions or concerns during my preparation and the expedition. I think the knowledge and help from Alan played a key role in the success of my Everest climb and now I continue working with Alan toward my next mountaineering goal.

"I am really pleased to have you as my coach. Worth every penny!" - Mike - new Summit Coach client for Ama Dablam

"All the incredible insight that you shared with me about climbing big mountains helped me get ready for my dream climbs. Your deep and broad knowledge base helped me fully prepare every aspect of my training, the gear and life management. Alan, I even took your valuable TIPS checklist for Everest with me to basecamp, and read it there over and over again. Thank you for helping me make the summits smoothly and safely."Jim's successful summit of Everest (29,035’) Nepal & summit of Cho Oyu (26,906’), Tibet

"Alan is the most valuable resource I've had supporting me while attempting mountaineering objectives in the Himalaya, Andes, and Rockies. His experiential knowledge of specific mountains, their respective ranges, and regions prepared me to perform better & make informed on-mountain choices as a result of reducing my unknowns. Alan's counsel also materially improved my pre-expedition decisions and preparation. I am lucky to know Alan and hope to continue working with him in the years to come." Jason's successful summits across the Rockies, Andes, & Himalaya including Mt. Everest in 2019
