Tristan Emm
I had the fortune of taking a 10 day Alpine Ascents International course, with Matt as head guide. I was impressed with how knowledgeable he was, and with how patient he was with clients. He was a strong leader for guides under him, and ensured the entire course was safe and successful. I highly recommend Matt as a guide and instructor in anything pertaining to mountaineering.
