"What can you say in a few words about a week of mountaineering in Ruedi's beautiful Selkirks? ... How about - fabulous food, views, photos, hiking, companionship. This was a week I will always remember - the best climbing available from a mountain hut, with a great guide. I will be back for sure for a ski or climb."

   Peter Sutherland, Alberta

"Thanks to Ruedi's magnificent guiding I enjoyed the awesome privilege of sitting on the summit of Mt. Moloch. Absorbing the vast perspectives and deep silence of this place was an other worldly experience. I will always be grateful to the rock and of course Ruedi for this transcendent glimpse of nature's beauty."

   John Kerr, Ontario

"Mt. Graham was a breathtaking island of heaven, which made me feel as part of a privileged few who actually view such beauty in a lifetime."

   Francois Dunoyer, France

"A distinct pleasure to accompany Ruedi on the Fridolin East Face descent. After six days I am once again having a hard time believing where I am, what I am doing. This place is beyond words. Thank you."

   Norman Bardeen, Colorado

"Thanks SME. You showed me how to climb higher than I thought was possible."
