Canada Guide Carl Lee-McLellan
Back to Guide Pages >>
Guide: Carl Lee-McLellanShort Bio: Carl has been fascinated by working in and exploring the natural world for a very long time. He received an honors degree in Outdoor Recreation and began a career working with at-risk youth. Through this work, he saw the profound effects our natural world can have on the human condition first-hand. This solidified his desire to share the natural world with as many people as possible.
Carl confesses that guiding for Austin-Lehman Adventures keeps him on his toes: guest expectations are very high, challenging him to keep looking for that new trail or even a quaint picnic site. He also enjoys delivering surprise tasty treats in the most unlikely locations for guests, such as six miles into the backcountry or nestled beside a panoramic vista. Carl and his wife have been guiding for Austin-Lehman for a combined 17 years in Canada, the US, Mexico and Central America. Carl says, "We continue to guide for ALA because of their commitment to adventures of the highest caliber."
