Interested in going a step beyond hiking, or training for a big mountain trip?

Summit climbs are ideal training climbs for aspiring alpinists and for avid hikers looking for a more 'exposed' and uniquely Adirondack mountaineering adventure.

While fitness for a full day of hiking is a prerequisite, no prior climbing experience is required. We'll teach you the basic technical skills along the way.

Summit climbs are ideal preparation for climbs and expeditions in the Cascades, Tetons, Rockies, Alaska and beyond.
