Heidi Kloos is a great friend and one of our senior guides. She has been working for Mountain Trip since 2005 and is one of our favorite climbing and ski partners when we're not working.
When not climbing, Heidi helps run an alpaca ranch in Ridgway, CO. Her responsibilities include looking after dozens of very valuable animals, helping shear their coats, birth their young, and milk Penny the Cow each day.
Heidi has participated on 10 Denali expeditions, nine of which were with Mountain Trip. Her level of care for her teammates is incredible, and is only rivaled by her strength of resolve, and strength on the uphill. In a nutshell, she's a sweetheart, but one tough cookie! Here she is riding her horse, Lady, in to climb Hayden Peak, in the San Juan Mountains of Colorado.
Heidi is a very seasoned international mountain guide. She has led many trips to Nepal and in South America. She'll help get you up your mountain, and also find the good "sanduche de pollo a la italiana" on that back street in Mendoza.
Boundless energy, enthusiasm and good will might start to sum up an experience with Heidi in the big mountains.
We should also mention that she is a very solid technical climber and one of the first women in the U.S. to earn the title of Certified Alpine Guide by the American Mountain Guiding Association.
I love hiking and traveling and tour into places. For hiking though, I sometimes give up because a lot of energy gets used up. lol!
