Description

The stunning Mount Superior in the Wasatch range is perfect for alpine climbing both in summer in winter. With just a few techniques you can tackle some thrilling steep winter climbing and enjoy the south ridge of this peak. On this one-day Mount Superior winter alpine climb, we will cover all the necessary skills you need to tackle this challenging Utah stunner!

To begin our excursion, we will head to Suicide Chute which is a rocky snow-capped 40-degree couloir. Despite its scary name, with the proper technique, we will be able to tackle this ascent without any problems. We will use crampons and ice axes. We will also be roped when we climb along the exposed crest of the ridge and will use slings, stoppers, and cams to ensure safety. Belaying, short-pitching and short-roping will also be techniques the guide will work with before descending on the East Ridge to Alta via Cardiff Pass.

Because this is a challenging excursion, we will need to begin early. Probably, we will start between 5 and 7 am and be back between 3 to 6pm. Also, you will need previous climbing and crampon experience. Additionally, you will need a good fitness level. In order to ensure maximum safety, we will have a 2:1 guide ratio. This means you will have a very personalized tour of Mount Superior.

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
