A mountain guy from the Adirondacks of New York and the White Mountains of New Hampshire, Kip now calls Snowshoe home.   An avid high altitude climber, his glacier climbs include Kilimanjaro in Africa, and several  in the Himalaya of Nepal including Pumori, Kala Patar, Goyko Ri, Island Peak and Everest Base Camp.   In winter Kip is a professional ski patrolman on Snowshoe Mountain.  White water rafting and scuba diving keeps him wet the rest of the sports season.

In addition to offering ski and snowboard equipment rentals, demo’s and sales in snow season, Gil is the prime mover behind mountain biking and trout fishing in our neck of the woods.  He’s helped thousands of bikers and fishing enthusiasts feed their habit, offering trips, tours, and guide services.   Gil and his crew will  get you outdoors, doing what you want to do, in every season of the year.   Running the Class V rapids on the Upper Gauley river is his idea of a relaxing day.
