After falling in love with mountains in New England, Ian traveled all over the country making ascents of everything from short roadside rock climbs to big walls to big peaks in the wilderness. Now he lives, plays, and guides in the Sierra Nevada, one of North America’s best mountain playgrounds. He rounds the year out with forays to Red Rocks, Moab, Washington’s Cascades, and Alaska. He likes ice cream, jackets with hoods, and well-earned rest days.
