Aimee Barnes started guiding in 1985 and is a legend in the guiding world. Her love towards guiding and her dedication to hard work is infectious. I was so inspired during our conversation, that I felt compelled to reflect on my own guiding to recalibrate my career path. She is also an advocate of education and mentorship. She has run the all-women Guide Protrack in City of Rocks for about 10 years. Both newer and seasoned female guides have benefited and learned much from the Protrack and built and grown their own network of support. Aimee is a walking history book. It was so fun listening to all the stories, from toughing out storms waiting for her Dad when she was a little girl, accidental participation in the Snowbird World Cup competition, to multi-decade long engagement with the outdoor and guiding industry. Now let's take this wild ride together with Aimee.
