Welcome to the first Third Thursday with Wes Gregg. In this episode I talk with Kyle Lamothe who is a park rat from the icy slopes of northern Ontario, Canada turned Ski Mountaineer. He packed up and relocated to the Canadian rockies before finally settling into a little ski town called Revelstoke, British Columbia. After gaining an education and establishing a career in hospitality, Kyle took a single trip to Sol Mountain Lodge. Upon his return he ditched the suit and tie, and embarked on his path as a ski guide. Due to the current global pandemic, Kyle’s progress was significantly impacted. He finds himself now in limbo in the hopes of being able complete his ACMG guide exam this winter. Kyle spends 100+ days a season ski touring recreationally, as well as Tail guiding at Sol Mountain Lodge.
