Ice Climbing

Lake Placid, NY (map)

Selected By: Aloha Guides

This trip will give returning climbers the option to get on some steeper lines and different cliffs and still have beginner climbers get started. First timers will enjoy the longer days

Get outdoors and have fun this winter. Experience the challenge of climbing a frozen waterfall. Learn the techniques and balance that will have you kicking efficient steps with your crampons and cruising up the waterfalls with each swing of the ax.

Ice climbing has become very user friendly due to lighter axes and warmer clothing.

Even if you have never climbed before you can get in on the fun. Our trips focus on getting people introduced to new adventures and having fun. Two beginner locations will be climbed for a great intro weekend.

Brian Dellett will be your guide to the High Peaks of the Keene Valley just outside of Lake Placid. Brian has been climbing for over 20 years and is a American Mountain Guide Association certified SPI and has his Guides License in New York for Ice and Rock Climbing.

We'll be staying in a hostel just outside of Lake Placid. The trip up is about 5 hours but the climbing and scenery is worth the trip. Everyone will meet at the hostel Friday night and we'll climb Saturday and Sunday. Sundays climbing will go till 4pm before heading home.

All trips are $285.00. Hostel lodging, boots, crampons, snowshoes, climbing equipment and Guides included. Transportation and food are not included. Participants should arrive by 11pm Friday night.

Questions or for more info email [masked] Directions and list of what to bring will be emailed when payment is received. Check out our photos on Facebook, Aloha Guides.
