Bruce Goodlad

Bruce has been an IFMGA guide for more than 20 years. He has guided throughout the world from Antarctica to Greenland. Bruce is a former Technical Director of the British Mountain Guides (BMG) where he was influential in the development of their avalanche and ski guide program.
Bruce has authored three books, including the instructional books: ‘Alpine Mountaineering‘– an introduction to alpine mountaineering, techniques and the routes to develop them on, and a follow up volume ‘Ski Mountaineering‘ that follows the same format with an in depth look at the techniques of ski touring and ski mountaineering including avalanche hazard evaluation, avoidance and rescue.

Bruce shares his passion for remote mountain areas with his guests. Recent adventures include trips to Japan, Arctic Norway, Svalbard, Greenland, Georgia and the less travelled parts of the Alps, he has a particular passion for combining his early years of sailing on the west coast of Scotland with exploring the mountains on skis with recent ski and sail trips.

He lives in the Alps with his family where he nurtures their love of the outdoors
