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.

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.
