Talkeetna Mountaineering Trips

The proximity of the Alaska Range, the Talkeetna Range, and Mt. McKinley make Talkeetna a hotspot for climbing, mountaineering, and glacier trekking. 

 

A true Talkeetna adventure.  Guided mountaineering in the Alaska Range.

Fly directly onto snow–covered glaciers in ski-equipped fixed-wing airplanes where you will explore the glaciated areas of Denali National Park and Preserve. The guides will teach you basic back country and mountaineering skills to keep you safe and comfortable. Photographers and outdoor enthusiasts are rewarded with stunning views and incredible landscapes. Those with little or no mountaineering experience benefit from the instruction on glacier travel techniques, snow shoeing and ice axe use. Natural history enthusiasts enjoy discussions on the glaciology and history of the area. There is something for everyone who enjoys being in the mountains and appreciates true wilderness and untamed beauty. This is the unforgettable trip of a lifetime.

All glacier treks include: Guide and instruction, round trip flights
 to the glacier, food, equipment needed for glacier travel, tents, boots, parka, mittens.

After building a fortified camp you will basically follow the same itinerary as a one day trek. You will then head back to camp.

Enjoy the late night alpen glow and early morning light. You will sleep toasty warm in the same equipment used high on Denali.

After a hearty breakfast and continuing our mountaineering education with a couple more classes, we rope up for an extended glacier tour and mini peak ascent.
