A Northern California native who grew up in Graeagle, CA, Nick Meyers is the USFS Mt. Shasta Wilderness and Avalanche Center Program Director. His career on Mount Shasta began as a summer internship back in 2002 while attending Feather River and Western State College for a degree in Recreation Leadership and Business. Nick’s mountain sense and technical skills have developed and evolved much from his own personal lust for adventure. Nick has scaled the Dolomites, skied Colorado’s 14ers, motorcycled the deserts and mountains of the Western United States on his dirt bike, sailed the oceans and surfed waves around the world. His adventurous spirit and fearless leadership commands our team of rangers in the high stress and high risk operations of Search and Rescue on Mount Shasta. Nick is also the Director of the Mt. Shasta Avalanche Center, issuing avalanche advisories and teaching awareness and companion rescue courses for the winter months. In 2022, Nick will have worked as a ranger on Mt. Shasta for 20 years. Nick also landed the front cover of Popular Mechanics!
