About Dev

Hey there! I'm Dev Johnson, an AMGA-certified rock climbing guide, wilderness first responder, ACA kayak instructor, and an emergency room RN. But when I’m not guiding or adventuring, I’m a proud dad, husband, and assistant fourth-grade flag football coach.

My journey in outdoor adventure started back in 2001 as a climbing and mountaineering instructor with Outward Bound. Since then, I’ve spent nearly 30 years adventuring and guiding, from the iconic big walls of El Capitan to the towering peaks of the Andes and beyond.

Today, I bring all that experience and energy to Dev’s Adventure Co., where I help others experience the thrill and challenges of the great outdoors in a safe and supportive environment.

I live in Glenwood Springs, CO, with my amazing wife, Sara, and our son, Cedar. When I'm not guiding, I love spending time with my family, exploring the mountains, coaching Cedar’s flag football team, and playing the guitar. Whether you're a seasoned adventurer or new to outdoor pursuits, I’m excited to help you take on your next adventure!
