Bret has been involved in the heli-skiing world of Alaska for going on two decades. We couldn’t teach someone what Bret understands about this business. Her expertise can’t be put in a box. She knows where to find you fuel when you are in the remote reaches of the mountains as well as your favorite beverage when you step out of the helicopter.

Bret grew up one of four girls on a small farm in rural Georgia riding horses, fishing and hunting. Her southern roots shine through with her warm smile and hospitable notions. You can rest assured, with Bret on site, your needs will be fulfilled.

Bret has a passion for the mountains. Be it on her board or a horse, the mountains are always calling. Bret fills her free time hiking, harvesting, and riding horses in the mountains alongside her ride or die Chesapeake Bay Retriever, Nika. She promises to stay forever young.
