James Williamson

James Williamson

I’m James, a ski-obsessed mountain enthusiast with a passion for turning travel dreams into reality. Born on skis in the suburbs of Denver, Colorado, I knew from the tender age of four that my destiny was intertwined with those majestic slopes. Skiing became my first love, and the mountains became my second home.
After graduating high school, I made a beeline for Gunnison, Colorado, a cozy little town nestled near the mighty Mt. Crested Butte and home to Western Colorado University. That’s where my ski industry career kicked off, landing a gig at Crested Butte Mountain Resort while I was in college.
Gunnison, my mountain paradise, is where I hang my ski boots and keep my wanderlust alive. When I’m not conquering slopes, you’ll find me tearing up the trails on my trusty mountain bike or running trails deep into the wilderness. I firmly believe that traveling and immersing ourselves in nature can spark life-altering transformations.
Now, my mission is to sprinkle a little bit of that transformative magic into your travel experiences. Whether you seek snow-capped peaks, sun-kissed beaches, or culture-rich cities, I’ve got your back. Let’s collaborate on crafting unforgettable adventures that’ll make your heart race and your soul sing.

Kurt Schroeder

Kurt Schroeder

At age 3, Kurt was already in the tracks of his dad’s leather-booted, slope-packing herringbone, up and down the woodsy pitches of the family backyard in Pennsylvania. Growing up within earshot of the snow guns at mighty Spring Mountain (and its 250 feet of vertical and two rope tows), fast forward to today, Kurt has visited virtually every ski resort in North America plus another twenty or so across Europe, South America and New Zealand. Many of Kurt’s finest experiences have included skiing and the mountains – he even met is wife in the ski industry. The marriage prompted a move from Mammoth Mountain in California’s Eastern Sierras to Banff in the Canadian Rockies and eventually, dual citizenship. During his fifteen years in Banff, Kurt dedicated a decade to directing the branding, marketing and communication efforts for Banff and Lake Tourism, promoting Canada’s iconic mountain destination and national park. He and his wife now live near Victoria on Vancouver Island, a short paddle away from the beautiful Gulf Islands and an inspirational ferry ride/drive to Whistler. They are also passionate cyclists, hikers, surfers, curators of their little beach cottage in Cardiff-by-the-Sea north of San Diego and are utterly indefatigable travel addicts.

Marlene Christopher

Marlene Christopher is a New Hampshire native who grew up skiing, but once she hit the slopes out West in Aspen, she knew she had found her true home.She has skied all the major mountains in the Western US and Canada from Whistler to Telluride, hiked the canyons of Utah, camped and fished from Alaska through Montana and Idaho to Wyoming, and she spent several years as an outfitter for hunters seeking big game in the high Western mountains. Marlene was an extreme skier before anyone knew it was cool, and was one of the many to hike up Independence Pass (above Aspen) with her skis, to get in those last wild runs in the Spring snow.She is an accomplished horsewoman, and she for many years had Snowmass Stables and a retail store in Snowmass Village that specialized in authentic Native American jewelry. She’s been selling ski vacations since 2000 and she knows the mountains, the lodges, the restaurants and all the fun outdoor activities available in the Alpine Adventures destinations.

AJ Templeton

A.J., a.k.a. Amanda Jo, went on her first trip at the tender age of 6 weeks and hasn’t stopped traveling since. AJ spent most of her childhood summers, with her family, exploring the National Parks, small towns, and out-of-the way places in the western and mid-western United States. She has an easier time telling you where she hasn’t been in the U.S., as opposed to where she has been. She spent three seasons working at a small luxury guest ranch in Wyoming and enjoys sharing her knowledge of the West.

AJ completed her B.B.A in International Business at Florida Atlantic University in 2004. As a result of working for Alpine Adventures, she went back to school, finishing her Master of Science degree, at the University of Central Florida, in Hospitality and Tourism Management in 2009.AJ now spends most of her time teaching the “Travel & Hotel Management” program at a small university in Ohio, where she enjoys sharing her experiences with her students. In her spare time, AJ enjoys exploring new places and spending time with her dog, Ruby.

Gary Nicoll

Originally from Scotland, I moved to Connecticut in the US when I was 11 years old. I first visited Africa in 2008 to climb Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania. Although this was a large focus of the trip, the few days spent on safari to Tarangire, Ngorongoro, and the Serengeti following the climb immediately became a lifetime highlight and ensured that I would visit the continent again. The combination of amazing scenery, game viewing, wonderful local hospitality, and endless adventure experiences make it a very special place.

I most recently returned from my last trip to South Africa & Zimbabwe, where I experienced the majesty of Victoria Falls; the thrill of whitewater rafting the Zambezi River; the excitement of Big Five game drives in the Greater Kruger Park area; the stunning beauty and culture of Cape Town; and the history of Johannesburg. Africa always delivers on all fronts and ensures that you’ll start planning your next visit as soon as you return home.

I have been in the travel industry in various capacities for close to 30 years, much of that time spent selling adventure travel. I have a love for travel and a thirst for experiencing new places, people, and cultures. I look forward to helping you customize that dream trip to Africa and to experience all it has to offer firsthand.

Denise Gordon Rusboldt

Denise grew up in Pasadena, California with parents who loved a good long distance road trip. Destinations included National Parks, the Southwest deserts, oceans, and mountains. Her father was an engineer from Jet Propulsion Lab and often their family vacations included ‘science’ lessons on the stars, lakes, rivers, snowpacks, desert winds, and ocean life. Her mother was more interested in fine dining and boutique hotels. So, the combination made for a first-hand travel education early on. This spirit of adventure and exploration guided her career working in the Outdoor Industry as a Brand Retail Marketer for over 17 years in Seattle, Washington. Her clients included Patagonia, Salomon, Giro, Smith Sport Optics, Burton, Merrell, Columbia Sportswear, Outdoor Research, The North Face, and Teva to name a few. Many of her client travels took her to ‘their offices’ and included a ski or other outdoor adventure as part of ‘getting to know the brand’ followed by the finest local dining experiences. Spending time in communities guided by locals gave her further insight into the delights of travel. This led to a leap of faith moving to Boulder, Colorado in 2005 to start her own branding company with a focus on the Outdoor Experience. It was during this time she met her husband, a Swiss-Canadian ski coach, and Heli-ski guide. She now splits her time in Boulder, British Columbia, and the Hawaiian Islands. Having traveled to almost all 50 states, and over 20 International countries, her travel experience is firsthand. Since 2015 Denise has worked as a Travel Agent in the Ski Industry and has experience in European River Cruises. Her goal is to tailor each and every vacation to exceed expectations, surprise and delight her guests. No vacation is one size for everyone, and thus she values listening, details and getting to know how to make each trip uniquely memorable. In her spare time, you’ll find Denise skiing, hiking, paddling, kitesurfing, and traveling. She loves to cook, does a little yoga, and makes a daily walk a daily practice.
