Guided Trips to the Sierra Nevada & Worldwide!
Acquire and hone those skills!


Rock Climbing Camp

This is a course for people who don't like to skimp on the details or half learn something! A day of climbing can be great and you can learn a lot but spending 5 days climbing with professional guides is really the way to go when you are serious about the sport and you have the means. Whether you have done some gym climbing or you have never climbed before this is a great course to introduce you to climbing in the great out-of-doors! Spend 5 days with our guides and your friends in the Eastern Sierra learning everything from belaying to being a competent and efficient follower during multi pitch climbs. This is also just an amazing way to get some exercise, get outside, and meet really fun people! Bring the family too!
