Chris Marshall

Chris Marshall fell in love with skiing during his sojourns to the icy, forested slopes of New England’s mountains. Fortunately, his love for mountains and powder skiing eventually drew him out West.

Chris is a Certified AMGA/IFMGA Mountain Guide by the American Mountain Guides Association (AMGA), the highest credential for mountain guiding in the world. He has guided and instructed across the lower 48, Alaska, Canada, Japan, the Alps, and Antarctica, and he’s excited to continue exploring mountains worldwide.

He holds a professional level 3 avalanche certification from the American Avalanche Institute and is a professional member of the American Avalanche Association. Additionally, Chris works as an instructor and examiner for the AMGA and within the Professional Avalanche certification track.

In the non-snowy months, he guides rock climbing, alpine mountaineering, mountain biking, and bikepacking. With his intimate knowledge of the Sun Valley area mountains, Chris loves designing custom-tailored trips for his guests!
