Introductory Cascadean Alpine Climbs
Our Introductory Cascade Alpine Adventures offer three stunning days in one of the most beautiful national parks in the US. These climbs will have a basecamp that we come back to after each day. This means we can focus on other skills outside of the climbing, such as camp craft, alpine food meal plans, and glacier travel/ technical systems.
Intermediate Cascadean Alpine Climbs
Our Intermediate Cascade Alpine Adventures ramp up in technical climbing difficulty on snow and rock relative to our Intro programs. As such, these climbs necessitate a larger variety of climbing skills to be efficient climbing. We have a basecamp that the team will come back to after each day. This means we can still focus on other skills outside of the climbing, such as camp craft, alpine food meal plans, and glacier travel/ technical systems.
Advanced Cascadean Alpine Climbs
Our Advanced Cascade Alpine Adventures are committing climbs with long stints of technical climbing difficulty on snow and rock. These routes require a bivy one or more times on route, which means guests must have a solid climbing foundation with an overnight climbing kit and previous experience alpine climbing.
