We pick a peak and climb it! We rotate through many of the High Peaks to help aspiring 46ers work through their tick list. These courses are also great for folks looking for camaraderie and new friends to explore the High Peaks. Spots are limited!

Some of the mountain ranges are difficult to bag all in one day. For those, we offer group overnight backpacking courses. We’ll establish a campsite and attempt our peaks from there. Also great for hikers looking to hone their camping skills.

Possible trips: Seward Range, Great Range, Dix Range.

Kick back and climb! We rotate through crags near Keene, Lake Placid, Wilmington, and Saranac Lake, so you might discover a new favorite place to climb! It’s also a prime opportunity to meet some new climbing partners. But most of all, it’s just a great excuse to get out and climb.

Don’t have your own gear? No problem! We can supplement rock shoes, harness, helmet, rope, and belay device for those who need them.

You’re ready to take your climbing from the plastic holds to the real rock, but you’re not so sure about all that anchor business, or even exactly what gear you’ll need to climb outdoors safely. That’s where we come in! During this one-day course, you’ll learn skills that will last your climbing career like evaluating a crag, how to set up a top rope, rappelling, climbing movement, and cleaning anchors.

Learning to lead climb opens up a whole new world of rock climbing. Some routes can only be done from the group up, but it can be scary and dangerous to take the sharp end. During this one-day course, you’ll learn the fundamentals of placing traditional gear (cams and stoppers) to protect your ascent. You’ll also gain skills as a belayer, learning how you play an active role in the climber’s safety, even from the ground. You’ll have the opportunity to do mock leads while on top rope, and get feedback from your guide on your gear placements. We’ll also cover how to clean the routes to get all your gear back at the end of the day.
