Expertly Guided Mountain Adventures.
Spring is here - time for big ski lines and bold alpine goals!
Longer days and spring corn snow mean it's go time in the mountains. From summit climbs and ski descents on Mt. Baker and Mt. Shasta (add Lassen Peak for the ultimate spring trifecta), to big alpine objectives in the Eastern Sierra, spring is the season to go big.
Whether you're just starting out or pushing into more technical terrain, we’ve got you covered. Explore our Intro Mountaineering courses in Tahoe and Washington, dive into crevasse rescue and rope skills clinics, or join a multi-day ski mountaineering trip on peaks across the Cascades and Eastern Sierra.
Our guides are here to help you build the skills and take on your biggest goals including Mt Shuksan and Mt Rainier!
