Elias Holt | Global Guide

Born and raised in Talkeetna, Alaska and in a log home, with a bush pilot / hunting guide for a father and a strong independent mother, Elias was given a great opportunity and perspective of the world and doesn’t want to waste it.

Elias still calls Alaska his home, living in Anchorage and much closer to the International Airport is key for him and his work. Elias started guiding at the age of 19 and has never looked back. Now with years of experience and many certifications he guides all over the globe. Ski trips in the famous deep powder of Japan, month long expeditions in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, incredible views from high altitude climbing expeditions on Denali, skiing incredible corn on the Antarctic peninsula and getting out of helicopters in famous peaks in the chugach range, Alaska.

Elias holds the following certifications: Avalanche pro 2, SPRAT 1, AMGA Pro member, Wilderness First Responder, winter forecasting, USCG 6pack, American Avalanche Association pro member, US heliski Pro member, rescue rope work and glacier rescue, PSIA ski instructing level 2. When Elias is not guiding, he enjoys watching late 80’s sci-fi movies, IPA’s and has a recent fascination with cribbage.
