Samuel Rooney

Samuel grew up surrounded by the San Juan mountains of Southwest Colorado. He enjoys all types of skiing, climbing and spending time in the mountains. Samuel calls Pagosa Springs, CO home and has been making the migration north to guide in the Cascades since 2019. When not guiding for Alpine Ascents, Samuel works as the Avalanche Forecaster at Wolf Creek Ski Area and running an Arborist Tree Climbing company. If Samuel isn’t up in a tree or in the mountains he can usually be found in the desert, rock climbing, biking, drinking coffee and spending time with his wife and dog.
