Guided Ski Touring in Norway & Georgia 
SVELAV Avalanche Courses 


Guided Ski Touring 

I am a certified ski guide with the Association of Canadian Mountain Guides (ACMG), an avalanche technician (CAA Ops Level 3), and a SVELAV avalanche course instructor, based in Norway and Georgia. I guide ski tours in Northern Norway and the Georgian Caucasus, focusing on Arnøya, Kågen, and Skjervøy (Arctic Norway), as well as Kazbek / Mkinvartsveri (Georgia). These are regions where I have pioneered many ski routes, and, after years of ski guiding worldwide, they remain my favorite skiing destinations. Additionally, I also guide in Skjomen and Narvik, another Scandinavian favorite.
I specialize in guiding small groups and individuals, prioritizing flexibility while maintaining the highest level of professionalism.




SVELAV Avalanche Courses 

This season, I am offering avalanche courses through Swedish SVELAV (Sveriges Lavinutbildningar) instead of the Canadian AST. The quality remains the same, only the name has changed—the format and course content are still similar. The course materials are continuously updated and developed to ensure the best possible training. Currently, I offer Freeride 1, Freeride 2, and PRO 1 courses.
New this season are also combined SVELAV + Wilderness First Aid (WFA) courses in several locations in Sweden and Norway.
I have been teaching avalanche courses in Norway and Georgia since 2015, all of which have consistently received 5/5 ratings. Courses take place either in Åre / Snasahögarna (Storulvån) or Narvik, depending on participants' locations, with Georgia available upon request. All courses are taught in English or Norwegian.
