DENVER--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Alterra Mountain Company announced today that Rob Rohn has been named President & COO of CMH Heli-Skiing & Summer Adventures based in Banff, Alberta, Canada, effective immediately. Rob will be responsible for CMH's operations as well as driving the profitability and growth of this premier destination by constantly improving the legendary CMH guest experience. He will report to the Central Region Chief Operating Officer, Sky Foulkes.
Rob dedicated his adult life to the outdoors and started his mountain guiding certification with the Association of Canadian Mountain Guides (ACMG) in 1982, becoming a fully certified ACMG/IFMGA Mountain Guide in 1986. He started at CMH as an Apprentice Ski Guide in 1984, then became a winter guide at CMH's Bobbie Burns, Monashees and Bugaboos lodges, and was eventually named Bobbie Burns Area Manager in 1991. From the early 2000's, Rob's role has continued to evolve, ultimately assuming the role of acting President & COO last fall.
