About Danny
Danny is an avid climber and explorer. He has lived nomadically for the past 9 years guiding in unique areas like the Gunks in New York, Joshua Tree in California, Rainier in Washington, and Denali, Alaska. He dreams of free-climbing big walls and challenging alpine routes in remote parts of the world. Climbing is only half of the picture for him. He found his passion for climbing through teaching and developing those experiences with others. If it weren’t for his community, family and friends in central Massachusetts, he may have never found guiding. Danny started working with Alpine Ascents in 2023, and has grown to love expedition style guiding. In the future he looks forward to guiding bigger peaks around the world and becoming internationally certified.
