Ski Mountaineering Fly-in Expedition Trips
Climbing, skiing and mountaineering in Alaska is spectacular, and bush planes give us access to remote areas the state is so famous for. Many peaks require technical skills, glacier travel and winter camping to reach the top and get back down. Join a trip led by Nick to the mountains of your dreams. Nick has led several trips throughout the grate state, into the Alaska Range, Wrangle-St. Elias, Chugach, Kenai, Tordrillo, Neacola mountains and more.
