GUIDE

David, a self-proclaimed winter chaser, is always the first to rip the steepest couloir line - the more exposed the better. As an International Federation of Mountain Guides Associations mountain guide living in Val d’Aran, it's almost implied. He's also the first to arrive at a party and usually the last to leave, yet David is all business when it comes to guiding. Efficiency and the well-being of his guests are his top priorities, but delivered with a bit more pizzazz than everyone else. Known for his people skills, David is one of the most lovable guides in Europe, and is also known for leading with savoir-faire in the Pyrenees Mountains. All that said, David’s true talent lies in his ability to cook the perfect omelet at any elevation.
