Unique Outdoor Adventures

On Rock and Ice

The world looks different from up above!

Challenge yourself in a whole new way, and see the world from a new perspective!

I’m Mischa Tourin.

I have been climbing and guiding people up mountains for nearly two decades. At Sterling Mountain Guides we help all sorts of people of every ability level have fun in the mountains all around Vermont. 

You’ll see a side of this state you couldn’t see anywhere else and you’ll do it in a fun and supportive environment. 

If you are new to climbing, you’ll learn skills that will help you on and off the rock for a lifetime. You’ll do things you never thought you could, and you’ll see the world in a whole new way.

We’re here for you!

✔ You want to get started climbing, but you don’t know where to begin

✔ You are visiting Vermont and want to get to all the cool spots while missing the crowds and not getting lost in the weeds. 

✔ You have experience climbing in the gym and you’re ready to go outside, but you want an experienced guide to help you transition.
