Alaska Ice Climbing
Guided Ice Climbing Tours & Private Instruction
Ice Climbing Trips & Custom Ice Climbing Instruction
Alaska and ice climbing just go together like milk and cookies! Join us and our professional guides for some of the absolute best ice climbing around Anchorage, Palmer, and Wasilla. South central Alaska has a huge variety of ice climbs, from single pitch ice flow cragging, to steep and challenging brittle ice, to enjoyable multipitch ice climbing in beautiful and awe-inspiring mountains. There is something here for everyone!
We offer private ice guiding and ice climbing instruction customized to your ability level and desires for the day. We can teach you the skills to build ice anchors, make v-threads, and be more efficient while climbing ice. Looking for technique pointers? We can get you up to speed climbing steep ice and feeling confident doing it.
Our guides are expert teachers and instructors and are passionate about sharing an incredible ice climbing experience with you. Our private Alaska Ice Climbing days are a great way to experience ice climbing for the first time, or to climb wild ice in America's Last Frontier.
Some of the venues we commonly use are:
Seward Highway
Caribou Creek
Chugach State Park
With such an abundance of ice so close to Anchorage and the Central Valley, it is very easy to climb multiple days in a row and never climb the same piece of ice twice. Need help planning your Alaska Ice Climbing Trip? Contact Us and we can answer questions and point you in the right direction.
