Our Take

We carry these Guide Gloves because they’re a go-to for alpine travelers who demand uncompromised warmth and protection. The combination of their rugged shell, plush insulation, and waterproof GORE-TEX makes them a dependable pick whether you’re belaying, skiing, or working in harsh cold. Their design gives you the insulation you need without sacrificing dexterity, exactly the kind of high-performance glove we trust for real mountain conditions.

Straight From The Source

Why We Love It
Erika Birkeland

These gloves excel in extreme conditions because they blend professional-level insulation and weather resistance perfectly. Our guides regularly choose them for multi-day alpine missions because they keep hands warm and dry while still offering the control needed for technical tasks.

“The BD guide gloves have a great combination of dexterity and warmth, allowing you to perform tasks without removing your gloves when it’s very cold.”
— Erika Birkeland, RMI Guide

Our Philosophy

We Simplify Outfitting

Whittaker Mountaineering was born out of the need for RMI to make sure their clients had the appropriate gear to get to the top of Mt. Rainier safely. After decades of trying, reviewing, arguing-over, and recommending gear, we can’t help but know what we’re doing by this point. We know what works, we know what doesn’t, and we use that expertise to stock our store. 

Who are these guys?

Black Diamond

Black Diamond has been outfitting mountain professionals for decades, building gear that’s tested on real climbs, not just in labs. We carry Black Diamond because their designs consistently deliver dependable performance where it matters most.
