Itineraries
Trip lengths are 4 days minimum to 7 days maximum.
Example of a classic 4 day itinerary is:
Day 1: Drive, meet your guide in Golden and approach the Kain Hut. Have a meal and review glacier travel and self-arresting on snow with ice axe and crampons.
Day 2: Climb a Spire. Choice based on weather, clients experience and goals.
Day 3: Climb a Spire. Based on how the previous day went, the appropriate objective and route is selected.
Day 4: Complete a shorter climb (Donkeys Ears, Buckingham or McTech) and descend to the parking lot.
