Conrad Kain served as a guide for nearly 30 years in Europe, Canada and New Zealand. During that relatively short period, he left a unique and unequalled legacy of mountain exploration and first ascents. Today, he is remembered primarily for three first ascents in western Canada—Mount Robson (1913), Mount Louis (1916) and Bugaboo Spire (1916).

Conrad Kain is a tribute website dedicated to the life, work and enduring legacy of the Austrian-born mountain guide, explorer and first ascensionist. Born into poverty in 1883, Kain built a remarkable career through imagination, grit and a deep commitment to life outdoors. For nearly 30 years, he guided climbers in Europe, Canada and New Zealand, leaving a distinctive mark on mountain exploration.
He is especially remembered for three first ascents in western Canada: Mount Robson in 1913, and Mount Louis and Bugaboo Spire in 1916. Kain also achieved notable first ascents in the European Alps and New Zealand, and helped explore and map the Canadian Rockies. His varied working life included quarrying, surveying, farming, trapping and horsepacking.
The website presents information about his life and legacy, alongside remembrance material and an album of historical photographs. It honours not only Kain’s strength and discipline as a climber, but also the humility, resourcefulness and love of the outdoors that earned the respect of his friends and clients
