Description

If you are looking for your next challenging winter adventure, this 3-day advanced splitboarding trip is perfect for you! My proposal is to explore some of the most challenging Eastern Sierra Nevada classic descents.

Sierra Nevada is famous for its spectacular scenery. Additionally, it offers skiers and splitboarders high quality snow and countless challenging descents. On this 3-day advanced program, we’ll climb and ride 1500 ft vertical slopes of up to 50 degrees. Some of the classic descents we will explore include the Incredible Hulk Chute, the West Couloir and the Horse Creek Canyon of Matterhorn Peak, among others.

Because this is an advanced splitboarding trip, you will need prior backcountry and off-piste experience to join. Also, keep in mind that we’ll be carrying an overnight pack all day on a splitboard. Therefore, it’s essential to be in good physical condition.

Are you ready for a fun adventure that will let you take your splitboarding skills to a whole new level? Then request to book this trip and get ready to discover the amazing Eastern Sierra Nevada in California!

If you are looking for more unforgettable experiences in California, you can also join me on this 2 day guided climb of the East Ridge of Mt. Humphreys.

What people are saying about Ryan

First class operation from beginning to end. Ryan (I believe owner or manager) provided the best customer service from the moment I contacted him as a result of a search on the internet. He set everything up with ease, always staying in touch and making sure we had everything we needed. Highly recommend him for climbing at any level.

Ryan, Tim, Scott, and Ben were all very friendly, professional, and super knowledgeable. I know there's an inherent risk in climbing, but I'm confident I can use what I learned from this program and climb much more safely outdoors. I'll be signing up for their other programs!

We just had an amazing weekend climbing in the Mammoth area. Greg, our guide, was so talented and hilarious! I learned so much and we climbed tons of amazing varied routes. We laughed learned and climbed hard. Cant wait to do more with you guys! Thanks for everything Ryan and Greg!

Ryan was absolutely phenomenal. Lines were set and tied in well before our meeting time. He had a great game plan for us. I'll be booking again soon.

Ryan is truly a top notch guiding service. Ryan is more than accommodating to work with, and the rapport we have with the guides is unmatched. Keep up the great work!
