“I have been the educational coordinator for the Vancouver Island Section of the Alpine Club of Canada, for the past two years and Cliff Umpleby has been the instructor of choice for all of our winter educational offerings. He is by far the most knowledgeable mountain guide that I have ever met, when it comes to avalanche safety training, crevasse rescue and backcountry ski technique.”

 

Peter Rothermel, Qualicum Beach BC

 

 

 

......."From an initial top rope rock climbing course, through to a wild expedition in the Waddington range, Jan has provided me with solid instruction and guiding to the highest standards"
