Noah Johnson
Petra Cliffs Guide
Noah is a senior at UVM studying Business and Emergency Medical Services. Noah got his start
in climbing through ski mountaineering and hasn’t looked back. He is equally happy slotting
cams on long multipitch routes as he is traversing the Knifes Edge on Mt. Katahdin with skis on
his back. Noah is actively pursuing the guide track and plans to continue his development
through the American Mountain Guides Association after graduation. Noah is a certified AMGA
Single Pitch Instructor, Wilderness First Responder, Leave No Trace Master Educator and has
taken AIARE 1, AIARE Rescue and a NOLS Outdoor Educator Mountaineering course. Noah has
climbed extensively in the Shawangunk & Adirondack mountains of New York, Green mountains
of Vermont, and White mountains of New Hampshire. He has taken multiple trips to Mt.
Katahdin in Maine during both the summer and winter months. Noah has also spent time skiing
and mountaineering throughout the cascades and rock climbing in Squamish, BC.
Noah enjoys sharing the adventurousness of climbing with clients regardless of their experience
or skill level. Helping others to accomplish their goals and develop an appreciation for the
minutiae of climbing is what draws him to guiding. Noah is currently training for a Professional
Level 1 Avalanche course in February and an AMGA Ski Alpine Skills Course in May.
