At the age of 20, Rolfe Oostra led his first expedition to climb Mt Kenya’s North Face and since then has kept the ball rolling with a passion.
Rolfe Oostra has made notable first alpine ascents in the Andes, Karakoram and Greenland and has established many new rock-climbing routes in Africa, South America and Australia.
He has explored many un-paddled rivers in the Congo and Amazon basin and traversed some of the world’s most isolated deserts. Rolfe is one of the very few people to guide all the Seven Summits.
After a stint being a scuba diver in 1997 Rolfe Oostra quickly went back to doing what he loves best – mountaineering. For over 7months of a year Rolfe can be found guiding on 6,7 and 8,000m peaks such as Mera Peak, Kang Yatse, Ama Dablam, Nun Peak, Manaslu, Gasherbrum II, Cho Oyu and Everest.
In 2016 he achieved a double Cho Oyu summit in 24 hours. In 2019 he set a world record for highest single-handed mountain rescue on Mount Everest. Rolfe is a sought-after expedition guide who makes each trip individual and hugely memorable. He is the real deal, wild, fun, unpredictable and genuine and generally is considered a legend in his own time.
