Want to take the tour a little higher? Ski mountaineering utilizes all the skills and techniques skiers and climbers learn in backcountry snow and alpine rock courses. Ski mountaineering is the ultimate climbing and skiing hybrid that facilitates access to more difficult snow covered peaks, high basins, rugged ridge lines and steeper couloirs. This course will introduce basic concepts, techniques and skills for those who are new to this discipline.
*Pikes Peak Highway tollgate fee of $18/person/day not included when we use the highway.
