Description

The 3-day trip in the Adirondack mountains is a great introduction to mountaineering for both beginners and experienced climbers looking for a technical refresher.

We will start our journey early from NYC, arriving the Adirondacks in the afternoon. Once there, we will do a 3-mile hike with our gear to the accommodation. This day will be divided into two: some indoor classes at first and then an outside practice. Finally, we’ll have dinner and spend the night at John’s Brook Lodge.

Our goal for the second day will be to reach the top of the Big Slide Mountain, a fantastic peak of the Adirondacks. Here we’ll be able to put into practice all our recently learned techniques.

The third and last day will be the perfect moment for reviewing all the relevant aspects of the previous days. We will hike back to the trailhead with our gear and then get our transfer back to the city.

Don’t miss your chance to develop your mountaineering skills in the beautiful landscape that the Adirondack mountains offer. Contact us now to make your reservation!

Guide cancelled within 48 hrs and I was unable to find someone else and so far I’ve not been refunded. Put a small dent in my otherwise great trip to Revelstoke.

Guide was very experienced and very patient with us. We learned alot and he tried to fit in all the knowledge he could in one day, super awesome. A little tough going back and forth to get the trip set up hard to tell if the site is sketchy until you see reviews but all worked out. Ended up with an awesome day with an awesome guide. Overall pretty satisfied and thankful!
