Jamie Selda
A recipient of the elusive Mug Stump award for a first ascent in Patagonia, this landmark achievement is just the tip of iceberg in a long list of accolades and accomplishments for Jamie Selda. As accomplished of a rock climber as he is a skier, Jamie spent his formative years climbing and skiing hundreds of peaks across the world, bagging first ascents in the rock climbing world, and generally getting after it in every way possible.
Jamie now calls Squamish and the surrounding Coast Mountain Range home, but settling down and ticking off his greatest achievement by becoming the father of three doesn’t mean he’s slowed down–if you’re looking for beta on the snowpack, tips on what to ski or ride, or a good story, look no further–Jamie Selda is your guy.
