Discover views of mountain peaks that fade into the horizon and learn how to safely cross glaciers, rescue yourself or your travel companion from a crevasse fall and many more practical mountaineering skills.
​
I can attest to an amazing six-day outdoor workshop to learn the basics of mountaineering around the Wapta Icefields in Canada’s Rocky Mountains. 

Impeccably organized by: Yamnuska Mountain Adventures

Guided by: Chhering Sherpa, certified mountain guide who climbed Everest for his first time when he was 19 years old and his experiences only grew from there.

Accommodation: Bow Hut, accessibly by a 3 to 5 hour hike from Bow Lake

Group size: Six of us green mountaineers were instructed by Chhering
