Good natured and perfectly suited to guide our tours doesn't even begin to describe the wonder of Paul. He joined us straight off his snowboard, spending the winter both patrolling and guiding.

As an incredible balance between hard working, capable and fun loving, Paul combined his diverse life experiences to come on board the Canopy Tour.

Patrick came to Bretton Woods long before the rest of the team, primarily as a ski patroller in the winter months. It soon became evident that he was a willing and able "Patrick-of-all-trades."

Zack Potter, Canopy Tour Guide
Zack's love of the White Mountains began at the ripe old age of 3 when his family moved here from Michigan. From there it grew by leaps and bounds through high school ski programs including ski jumping. Following "spiritual awakening" trips to France and Australia's Outback and Great Barrier Reef, Zack finally landed at Hobart College where he double majored in Religion and Music. After 4 more years as a "flatlander" in Western NY, the inner ski bum got the best of him again in the summer of 2009 and he's been attached at the hip to Bretton Woods ever since assisting our ski school program and canopy tour.
