Description

The best place to learn how to properly climb mountains is in the mountains. And on this 2 day seminar in the Wasatch mountains of Utah, we would like to teach you the skills necessary for future climbs. So if you have ambitions to scale mountains like Denali (6,190m) or Rainier (4,392m), or perhaps even Aconcagua (6,962m), this seminar is for you.

Along with being stunning to admire, the Wasatch mountains offer some great climbs. As a result, you will get to enjoy yourself as you climb, while learning how to improve your climbing skills.

A lot will be covered during this seminar. We will go over route selection, pace and travel protocols for avalanche terrain. We will also teach you how to properly climb on skis or snowshoes while carrying a heavy load. Other skills you will learn include how to establish a winter camp using dead man anchors and snow walls.

Along with learning new skills you may not already have, we will also review the ones you do. Examples include how to properly use crampons and an ice axe, and how to self arrest. Crevasse rescue is also on the agenda, as is how to melt snow for water and how to stay warm and comfortable in an alpine environment.

During this seminar, you will put all you have learned and reviewed into practice in the mountains as you get to climb one of the range’s peaks.

Do you want to improve your climbing skills, while learning some new ones in a beautiful mountain range? Then send us a request and join us for a 2 day seminar in the Wasatch mountains.

Man

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.
