Fresh Track took us around for off piste boarding. The Fresh Track Team planned seriously with the existing conditions. No risk was taken. Everything was clearly communicated. At all times it was clear what to do and what not to do. Very competent! Great knowledge of the Verbier backcountry! Great fun! Unforgetable days off piste! Next year again ...

Dre has a wealth of knowledge and experience which enables him to find the right snow conditions even on days when you least expect it. He is safe yet adventurous and very able to assist even those who are more than capable on the mountain. I am a skier albeit my friends are all boarders. We all appreciate a challenge and Dre made sure that the day was a pleasure for both skiers and boarders combined with a very memorable back country excursion!

I've had the chance to embark on two Avalanche safety camps with Dre and recommend it to everyone. On top of being such fun couple of days, you learn a lot about how to safely plan your off-piste experiences, search and rescue your team members, while riding in fantastic spots.
Dre is extremely safe and prepares his days very thoroughly, analyzing all aspects of weather conditions and forecasts. He is meticulous and makes sure the entire team is well taken care of, skiers and snowboarders alike!
I've gathered incredible memories from these camps and met great people each time!

I have been on both back country and technical courses with Fresh Tracks for several years and have had some unforgettably incredible experiences. Dre is an extremely knowledgeable guide who I always feel safe with.

Best guiding service I have used in Verbier. I have skied with Fresh Tracks multiple times and taken their avalanche course. Fresh Tracks is skier and snowboarder friendly and the guides have great knowledge of Verbier and the surrounding areas. The guides are fantastic and great to get along with. Wouldn't ski with any other guides in Verbier and will continue to use them going forward!

I have been a customer of Fresh Tracks since 2007 and still am a very happy and loyal customer.
I started taking off - piste guiding from them at first. They always find me untouched powder even a couple of weeks after the last dump. It's uncanny how they can do it every time I visit.
When I first became a customer, I was a very below par snowboarder. Over the years of coaching I have had from them I became a qualified snowboard instructor 2014, purely because of the quality of their teaching.
I cannot recommend them highly enough to be honest.

I went to Verbier during a week with very little snow. After the first tracks were gone the pistes became icy and tough to manage, but even with this lack of snow Dre found the best powder I have ever snowboarded on by far! The snow was deep and you really felt like you had the mountain all to yourself. The runs seemed endless as we carved down mountain after mountain. I felt completely safe as Dre knows the mountains extremely well and is completely trained in Avalanches and various other possible mishaps. Being a snowboarder, it was essential for me to have a snowboarding guide. Dre is always watching and made sure that we didn't do anything a snowboard couldn't handle, this made me feel completely safe and as he is one of the only snowboarding guides in Verbier I would highly recommend him to any snowboarder or skiier. He's an awesome guy and he really gives you the experience of a life time. Fresh-tracks is a must-have for anyone visiting Verbier.

I have spent a lot of time over the years with Dre from Fresh Tracks and its always been a great adventure. Safe fun and lots of powder. Every time you go out you learn something new about the mountain. The best thing I can say is some coaches/guides are great after a fresh snowfall but Dre can make the bad days brilliant he always finds snow.

Been out with Dre from Fresh Tracks a few times over the last couple of years and each time has delivered the goods. whether it has snowed the night before or hasn't snowed in a week, Dre has always managed to find great lines. he has been in the area for years and his incredible knowledge of the area shows this. i would recommend, if you have the time, going on one of the avalanche safety camps which last a few days, and give you a good deal of the knowledge you need to ride safely off piste and in the backcountry. if not just being guided for the day is more than worth it, skiers and borders alike. can't recommend Fresh Track enough!

I spent two days one-on-one with Fresh Tracks. He tailored the days to my own preferences, with the first day focusing on avalanche safety and some coaching. The second day was off-piste and a bit more coaching.
I've been riding for 16 years and came to Verbier to find a challenge. I did NOT expect to have a coach who drastically fixed parts of my riding that I didn't even know were wrong. Now the problem is that finding a challenge is much harder!
The conditions on my trip were bad. Which made the guide experience so much more valuable. We found excellent snow despite the rest of the mountain being iced up. I brought along a newly purchased GoPro and made the memory of a lifetime.
I highly recommend Fresh Tracks. It's worth the cost. Do it.

Hi, I'd like to know how you went about creating this page, as I want to do the same for the Photo Courses I offer in & around Verbier. Been looking into it, and am not finding it as straight-forward as I would've thought. Thanks for your help & valuable input :-)
Hey, sorry for late reply. Just got your message. If you still haven't managed, let me know. Cheers
