guide - / ɡaɪd / -
noun
Formerly qualified mountain expert. Mountain Guides hold a professional qualification in guiding gained through training and assessment, often in technical and climbing skills, from guiding groups while hiking, classic mountaineering in all sectors, to treks on high altitude peaks or accompanying expeditions. These skills may vary from association to association or by the level of qualification achieved.
\\ None of the group have any experience of the Sólheimajökull glacier, so we should consider hiring a guide for this part of the trip.
