Patrick Lane
Patrick grew up in the foothills of the SierÂra NevaÂda MounÂtains of CalÂiÂforÂnia, USA. From an earÂly age, he enjoyed campÂing and hikÂing, latÂer directÂing his time toward mounÂtain bikÂing, trail runÂning and comÂpetÂiÂtive nordic skiÂing. His love for the natÂurÂal enviÂronÂment led him to purÂsue a degree in Marine BiolÂoÂgy at UC SanÂta Cruz and then spend six years in the US Navy as a DivÂer doing salÂvage and underÂwaÂter subÂmaÂrine repair. Patrick’s Naval serÂvice brought him to WashÂingÂton State where he develÂoped a love of rock climbÂing, mounÂtaineerÂing, and backÂcounÂtry skiÂing. After being honÂorÂably disÂcharged, he began sumÂmer work guidÂing rock climbÂing, canyoneerÂing, and via ferÂraÂta. He spent six winÂters teachÂing downÂhill skiÂing. Patrick evenÂtuÂalÂly focused his efforts toward mounÂtaineerÂing instrucÂtion, expeÂdiÂtion guidÂing and instructÂing, backÂcounÂtry skiÂing, and avalanche eduÂcaÂtion. He occaÂsionÂalÂly moonÂlights as a remote legal assisÂtant for an immiÂgraÂtion attorÂney. Patrick has lived in Moab, UT, TelÂluride, CO, and spends about two months of his life every year workÂing West ButÂtress ExpeÂdiÂtions on Denali. He curÂrentÂly lives in SeatÂtle, WA where he is proud to guide and teach for MounÂtain MadÂness! Patrick’s favorite part of guidÂing is meetÂing new peoÂple and helpÂing them learn and grow by chalÂlengÂing themÂselves as they explore the mountains!
