Aaron Miles-Jamison was born in Denmark and raised in California were he surfed, climbed and skied. Early in his years he learned the values and quality of being outdoors, and how it impacts people. As a young man, Aaron continued to purse the outdoor life through his extensive military experiences and the experiences gained in Colorado, New Hampshire, and up state New York’s Climbing communities.
Aaron was introduced to the art of Guiding and Instruction and found adventure through education, the bond of the guide-client relationships, and nature herself. Expanding his disciplines to Ice Climbing, Mountaineering, and Rescue, Aaron quickly found that all the seasons had so much to offer, and that so many others could benefit as well. Aaron currently has joined up with fellow instructors to establish a network of education.
After 20 years of experience in the Climbing Arena and an extensive background in Para-medicine, leadership, education, and selfless efforts to promote outdoor education in a eco-friendly manner, Aaron continues to provide all guests he encounters with committed service.
