Ski with Joe Stock!
Joe guides backcountry and ski mountaineering around Southcentral Alaska from December into June. Backcountry skiing includes non-glaciated and non-technical ski terrain. It’s about finding good snow in a beautiful location. Ski mountaineering adds more exposure to backcountry skiing; we bring a rope for possible use in steep terrain or for glacier travel.
