Beyond experience, certification and passion, CAPOW! Guides are leaders of a growing community; a community that believes in sharing specialized mountain travel knowledge with recreational enthusiasts.
The team (Caposse) is a group of backcountry mentors that have three very important things in common:
A Capow! guide’s approach is more than “I lead, you follow,” instead, they inspire and educate steps through the PROcess of decision making and how it applies to the real mountain environment. They are backcountry mentors that lead by setting an example, stimulate the conversation and tailor to their guests desires for higher learning and experiences. This is our team, this is their backyard. Do you want to come along for the ride?
Kat Beets, our resident Kiwi-Canadian, cut her teeth on the icy wind buffed slopes of the New Zealand Alps. The blow your hair back conditions definitely made her who she is today!
Kat has 20+ years in the patrol game as a patrol leader and avalanche tech in NZ, California and the Rockies. She comes with a wealth of knowledge as deep as the Monashee snowpack… and experience to boot.
Kat is one of the newest guides to our roster, and she comes with a finger tight attitude. Tight but loose but tight. With that vibe, she brings a hell of a good time -and safe time- to our guests, other guides and custodians!
