 Poster: A snowHead

Hi,
Does anyone have a recommendation for an off piste/freeride guide for a day around Gstaad or Glacier 3000?
Thanks a lot,
Marc

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

@marcs44, When for? I can't recommend a private guide but I can recommend the freeridedays.ch event. I will be doing both days this year. Excellent value guiding.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Thanks,
For a day over half term.
That event looks fun though - enjoy!

You could try Julie-Ann Clyma - British mountain guide based in nearby Leysin. May well be already booked; but if not she’s very good and super person too.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Look at BMG British mountain guides, Steve Jones, Terry Ralphs and as above Julie-Ann.
These 3 live in Leysin, or Swiss Guide Adolf Schlunder lives in Gsteig.

@marcs44, if I were not in rehab right now, i worked there before getting injured and it is an amazing place. Check with Gstaad Swisssnowsports office as they have guides/freeride Instructors that know the area really well. If it allowed me, I would post some photos of the North facing slopes with around 2000 vertical on every run. Awesome!

Yes, that is in the back bowl going down to the chair. There are a few options in the valley on the left and right sides. The powder is really fun and stays for quite a while as like you said, not many people around!! Awesome place, but do not tell everyone!!

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

@snowcrazy, are you talking about that huge descent heading N-ish from pretty much the summit of Les diablerets? That’s a super-dooper run.  ))
