Prerequisites
Basic rock climbing and belay experience. Prior Ice climbing experience preferred.

Join us for an alpine adventure up Shoestring gully in the White Mountains! We will hike through snow, climb five to seven pitches of water ice, and top out with beautiful views of Crawford Notch. The descent involves hiking down an established trail to our starting point.

This trip is for beginners wishing to experience the glory of ice climbing. Prior belay experience is required. Additionally, you must be physically fit. Hiking up a snow gully is no easy task!

We plan to depart from Boston no later than 5am on Saturday morning. Feel free to contact us with further questions or concerns.
