About

When you're ready to explore Montana's thrilling and unforgettable outdoors, reach out to the pros at The Mountain Guides.

This renowned outdoor adventure company offers various activities for novice and seasoned adventurers.

The origins of The Mountain Guides go as far back as 1967 when experienced guide and skier Barry Corbet reached an agreement with Teton Village near Jackson Hole to run a climbing school.

Corbet's vision was simple but powerful: to share the beauty and wonder of nature with everyone who wanted to experience it firsthand. Over the years, this small outfit has grown into a top-tier adventure provider, offering guided excursions in hiking, rock climbing, skiing, and more all over the American West.

The guides at The Mountain Guides are more than just experts in their respective fields; they are passionate educators committed to ensuring every guest has a safe and unforgettable experience.

With a strong emphasis on environmental stewardship, they instill a deep appreciation for nature and the importance of preserving it for future generations.

Whether you're embarking on your first hike or attempting a challenging climb, their friendly and knowledgeable team will support you every step of the way.

Fun Facts & Cool Features

One of the most exciting aspects of adventures with The Mountain Guides is the variety of experiences they offer. While some might opt for the half-day rock climbing adventures, others might want to test their mettle on the week-long expedition to Granite Peak.

Over six days, adventurers will trek through wilderness and eventually top Montana's highest—and one of North America's most challenging—peak.

Another cool feature is their commitment to sustainability. The Mountain Guides is a certified supporter of the Leave No Trace Center for Outdoor Ethics, which means they adhere to strict principles to minimize their environmental impact. It's refreshing to know that your adventure with them is thrilling and eco-friendly.

The fine folks at The Mountain Guides are also more than happy to work with you on creating custom Whitefish adventures to suit your specific needs. Just inquire using the form on their website or call them.

When you're ready to push the limits in Montana's wilderness safely and enjoyably, let The Mountain Guides lead the way.
