Rocky Mountain Guides
Rocky Mountain Guides was founded by Peter Krainz, an Austrian Bergführer (Mountain Guide) in 1992. Having moved from Austria, the heart of the Alps, to Summit County, CO Peter brought Austrian Alpinism to his new home. While our focus is on Summit County, we have guided clients in the Alps and other mountain ranges across the globe. Being in business for over 30 years, RMG has evolved from a small single guide outfit focusing on rock climbing and ski mountaineering (ski touring) to a true year round guiding company with highly specialized guides for various activities.
In addition to taking guests on their very own Colorado Rockies Adventure, RMG works with local organizations focusing on youth education and non-profit organizations to maintain Summit County’s trails and routes.
Peter and his guides were awesome! We had a scout group of 26 persons with a variety of skill levels. The guides were helpful and kept the outing exciting! Many thanks.
