New for Revelstoke, BC: an alpine guide service—the first of its kind in this part of the Canadian backcountry.  Revelstoke Alpine Adventures (RAA) made its debut Dec. 8, offering guided services for skiing, hiking, waterfall ice climbing, rock climbing, and mountaineering adventures, as well as avalanche skills training courses.

Having guided in the Revelstoke area for a combined 40 years, RAA owners Norm Winter and David Scott are seasoned veterans. Winter and Scott are certified by the Association of Canadian Mountain Guides and members of the International Federation of Mountain Guides Association.   All RAA guides will be certified by the ACMG, which takes a minimum of 5 years of training and testing.

“Our experiences range from several hours to several days,” says co-owner Norm Winter. “We provide experienced professionally certified guides who personally coach guests throughout the journey. Guests can count on our team to help them push personal limits while balancing adventure and safety. We’ve had many guests tell us at the end of a trip that they cannot believe what they were able to accomplish. Our guests have told us that many of these experiences change their lives and expand their personal boundaries.”
