Head Guide
Chris
Davenport
Two-time World Extreme Skiing Champion (1996 & 2001). Honored member of the U.S. and Colorado Ski Halls of Fame. First to ski all 54 Colorado 14ers in a single season. Summited Everest on May 20, 2011.
I've spent 30+ years as one of the defining figures in professional skiing, pushing standards in big mountain competition, ski mountaineering, and now expert-guided ski camps for people who want to ski the world's finest terrain.
From guests
“I've skied with a lot of guides over the years, but this camp changed how I understand skiing. Chris reads terrain in a way that's impossible to explain until you see it in person.”
“The combination of guides (Chris, Mike, and Ingrid) meant we had a coach for every situation. Six days felt like a full season of progression.”
“Japan was everything the hype promised, and more. A foot of snow on day one, and Chris knew exactly which lines would deliver. Already signed up for next year.”
