Marc Chauvin is an Internationally Certified Mountain Guide living in the Mount Washington Valley of New Hampshire. To acquire that certification Marc had to take extensive courses and exams in Rock, Alpine and Ski Mountaineering through the American Mountain Guides Association.

Depending on the season Marc teaches Rock Climbing, Ice Climbing, Winter Mountaineering ,Alpine Climbing and Ski Mountaineering. In particular Marc has developed a reputation for his Learn to Lead Courses in both Rock and Ice. Here is the Anchor part of his extensive handout for his Rock Lead Course.

Marc's philosophy on teaching and guiding technical terrain is to teach individuals privately or small groups of people who know each other. This is the way recreational climbers climb and allows you to train in a realistic setting.

Most people find this style of learning to be more efficient and comfortable because you move at your own pace without feeling the stress to perform or of being held back by others in a group. It also allows you to do longer routes of appropriate difficulty giving you the true experience of climbing in a dramatic and fun setting.

Contact Marc to talk to him about your plans and goals in rock to set up a truly fun educational and rewarding climbing experience.
