Join me for an incredible adventure around Rock Creek Ski Hut. Located in Eastern Sierra Nevada, 30 minutes away from Mammoth Mountain, it is the highest hut in California at 3,108 meters. The views and the skiing options are one-of-a-kind. You’ll fall in love with this place.
For this trip, we’ll need to cross-country ski 5 miles (around 8 km) to reach the best terrains for ski touring. Some of the nearby tracks include the East Gullies of Mt. Starr, “The Shoulder”, Mt. Dade, Mt. Abbott, Treasure Peak, and, weather permitting, Cat Ears Couloir, the Hourglass Couloir, and the Northeast Couloir. There are options for a 2 or a 3-day trip.
One of the best parts of the Rock Creek Ski Hut is that, due to its high altitude, the snow tends to hold better and for longer. This lodge can only host a group of six, ensuring privacy and a cozy atmosphere with your friends and family. It also offers the basic amenities for a rustic adventure.
This trip is recommended for intermediate to advanced skiers or snowboarders. A good fitness condition and prior experience in all kind of snow is mandatory.
So come fall in love with California’s mountains. Book your trip now! I can guarantee you’ll cherish the memories of this trip forever.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
