MOUNT BAKER
MOUNTAINEERING SCHOOL
Operated by our sister organization AWExpeditions
The majestic Komo Kulshan (Mount Baker) stands as the ultimate introduction to mountaineering and the navigation of glaciated terrain. From pristine wilderness to world-class glacier training opportunities, this experience is perfect for those taking their first steps towards mountaineering or hoping to refine your existing skills.
COTOPAXI
THREE SUMMIT CHALLENGE
Three summits. One epic challenge. This adventure provides the opportunity to experience Ecuador’s colorful culture and the stunning and diverse landscapes of the famous volcano alley.
You’ll stay in a historic hacienda and hike through native forest to the peak of Pasochoa, take in the vast highland paramos from the top of Rumiñahui, and last but not least, mountaineer to the icy third summit of Cotopaxi! This experience is perfect lovers of nature, culture and hiking who want to try their hand at mountaineering.
ACONCAGUA
360 ROUTE
Operated by our sister organization AWExpeditions
One of the Seven Summits, Aconcagua’s ruggedness and fierce weather make it an endurance challenge of a special kind. While not technically difficult, as there is no extremely steep or glaciated terrain, this is an extremely demanding trip that is suitable for most levels, long as they possess a penchant for cold weather and suffering.
We’ll be climbing the mountain via the longer, more rugged, less crowded and much more beautiful 360 Route.
