Steve Tickle

Adventure travel is very important to me and a big part of my life. Come travel with me and I will show you amazing things and the places I've fallen in love with. The world is a book, and those who don't travel read only a page.

Steve has climbed and hiked in Canada, Mexico, France, Italy, Switzerland, and Nepal, and in the U.S. has climbed in Colorado, California and Washington. He has climbed all of the northwest volcanoes including over ten trips to Mount Rainer. He's taught countless courses on mountaineering, rock climbing, ice climbing, preparing and climbing Mount Rainer, and on gear and equipment for mountaineering.

Steve is a low key but fun individual who plays a mean game of Uno. He loves international travel and spending time and getting to know people from all over the world. As a professional fire fighter and EMT Steve knows how to handle emergency situations.
