The catalogue
Seven routes. Six ranges. Fourteen departures a year.
Every route below lists its grade, its prerequisites and what the price does not cover. Nothing here is a package — if what you have done does not match what a route needs, a guide will say so in the first reply.
How to read a grade
- Walking, with weight
- Glacier travel, roped
- Committing, multi-day
- Remote, self-rescue
- Expedition-serious
Grade III and above carries a written prerequisite that we check against what you have actually done, not against what you feel ready for.

Not sure which
Say what you have done. We will name the route.
About a third of enquiries come back recommending something other than the route that was asked about, and nobody has yet been annoyed about it for longer than a day.
