Sean Janes
Owner & Guide
Sean began skiing in Alaska at age three and has guided professionally since 1994. He was also a Pro Patroller/Avalanche Route Leader for 10 winters at Eaglecrest and has been the first responder for many technical rescues in the local backcountry. Having worked outside professionally for nearly two decades, Sean is a true expert in the mountain, glacier, and marine environments of Southeast Alaska.
In 2002 Sean and his wife Becky started Above & Beyond Alaska, a multi-sport adventure company permitted to lead trips on the glaciers & waterways of the Juneau Icefield, Endicott Wilderness, and Admiralty Island National Park. ABAK guided trips focus on small groups, specialized gear, and unique terrain accessed by helicopter or motorboat. Production service companies often hire Sean to organize the safety, logistics, outfitting, and permitting for movies, commercials, travel shows, and documentaries.
