We are excited to introduce you to one of our #IceAxeGuides @OdeSiivonen! // Ode Siivonen was born in Finland but has been living in Chamonix for over 20 years. He started skiing at the age of four. Snowboards, climbing gear and many other outdoor tools have since become familiar. Ode is a UIAGM/IFGMA certified mountain guide and guiding work has taken him to the mountains in the Alps, Norway, Kashmir India, Kamchatka and Caucasus in Russia, Alaska, Annapurna Nepal, Svalbard,... Argentina and Antarctica. Over the past three decades, Ode has concentrated on mountain sports year round. He climbs rock, ice and alpine terrain, enjoys the mountains on both a snowboard and skis, and sometimes base jumps or paraglides from the nearby cliffs. His favourite sports are riding powder and multi pitch rock climbing. Ode chooses the tools and activities for a particular day based on conditions, weather and feeling. With over thirty years of experience in skiing, snowboarding and climbing, with friends and with guests, Ode has developed a philosophy that riding and climbing should ultimately be as safe and as much fun as possible. Steepness, grade and difficulty do not matter as long as the snow is good and the spirit on the team is high. It’s great to have you on our Ice Axe team @odesiivonen! #IceAxeExpeditions #IceAxeSki #IceAxeGuides #Antarctica #Arctic #SkiAntarctica #Mountaineering #Explore
