Andy Brooks
Andy left the Midwest at 18 for the mountains of Montana, settled on the west slope of the Tetons, and has headed north to the Chugach every spring since he was 21. He started heli-guiding in Alaska in 2007 and has led more than 3,000 runs there since.
Soul Powder Guide is Andy — one guide, two of the best heli operations in North America.
“Andy’s deliberate approach and calm demeanor brought a new level of comfort to the experience that let us soak it up and grow.”
