Since the dawn of history, humans have stood in awe of the Teton
range. The Grand Teton is perhaps America's most dramatic peak, rising
over a mile from the valley below.
We'll have two days of climbing instruction, with lots of hands-on
practice, followed by two free days on which you can hike, climb, swim,
visit Yellowstone, or enjoy Jackson Hole's myriad other activities.
Then we head up the mountain. Get ready for the most exhilarating holiday
of your life!
Holiday
Highlights:
- Learn knots, rope work, safe climbing technique, and rappelling
from expert instructors.
- Watch for moose, marmots, bald eagles and other animal life as you
practice your moves.
- After a day of climbing, cool off in the crystal waters of Jenny
Lake.
- Hike through rugged forest, then a valley strewn with boulders the
size of log cabins, on our way to base camp, with experienced outdoor
guides always ready to help.
- Stand atop the 13,770-foot peak known as the American Matterhorn.
