Es un placer para mí ayudarte a aprender los secretos de la escalada en roca en este programa de 4 días. Los mejores y más variados itinerarios de escalada están a solo una caminata de 3 horas desde el acogedor Refugio Frey, a 1700 metros de altitud. Aquí, encontraremos una opción para cada nivel de experiencia.
Además, aprendí la mayoría de mis habilidades de escalada y me enamoré de la Patagonia justo en el Valle de Frey. Es por eso que decidí hacer de Bariloche mi nuevo hogar e invitar a la gente allí.
Las paredes de roca en el Valle de Frey ofrecen grandes agujas con incríbles grietas para comenzar a ganar confianza con la roca y las habilidades básicas. Siempre recomiendo pasar al menos 3 o 4 días en el lugar.
Por supuesto, nuestro mayor objetivo será “el Principal”. Es la aguja más alta de la zona con 2405 metros. Su ruta normal es bastante accesible. Comenzaremos con una escalada de quinto grado (intermedio) y después de unos movimientos estaremos en la cumbre disfrutando de una vista impresionante.
Hay muchas otras agujas cercanas, tales como “el Abuelo” o “La Vieja”. Todas ellas ofrecen grandes rutas de diferentes dificultades.
Así que, si quieres hacer algo de escalada en la zona este es el lugar adecuado. Rellena el formulario y contáctame. ¡Tengo muchas ganas de compartir contigo momentos de escalada en roca!
Encuentro en Bariloche donde revisaremos el equipo y nos dirigiremos al centro de esquí Catedral. Desde aquí, una suave caminata de 3 horas hasta el refugio. Disfrutaremos del lugar y nos prepararemos para una tarde de escalada en roca.
Una corta caminata hasta la base de otra Aguja, que podría ser el “Abuelo”, M2 o “La Vieja”. Las rutas tienen una longitud de alrededor de 100 a 150 metros. Sus niveles de dificultad varían desde grados 5 hasta los más difíciles para los más experimentados.
Hoy podemos abordar la torre principal llamada “La Principal”. Un acercamiento un poco más largo hasta la base. Desde aquí empieza una sección realmente fácil hacia el primer largo. Luego, una un poco más empinada con algunas fisuras. Las vistas se hacen cada vez mejor. Pronto, estaremos en el último largo confiando en la excelente adherencia que tiene el granito.
Hoy todavía habrá muchas más opciones de escalada. Recomendaría lo clásico, Sifuentes Weber en la aguja Frey, antes de regresar por la tarde.

UIAGM-IFMGA guide in Argentina
I grew up in Buenos Aires to Scottish parents. I was lucky to travel and camp all around this beautiful country hence developing a great passion for the outdoors.
So once I finished my degree in Physical Educacion and also had a Trekking Guide certification (1997), and after spending my summers as a climbing bum up at Frey, I decided Bariloche was the place I wanted to live in.
My passion has allowed me to pursue my dreams of climbing some big walls in Yosemite, the Bugaboos, some faces in the Alps and Dolomites and other closer to here in Brasil, Peru and Bolivia.
I spent a few season working down in Southern Patagonia, El Chalten at the Base of Fitz Roy and Cerro Torre. Here I learned my skills in dealing with all the minor details of managing groups.
Later when Argentina proudly became part of the IFMGA/UAIGM, I took part in the first course/promotion and got certified as a Technical guide (2005).
I’ve been leading trips with NOLS and Outward Bound for the last decade almost and got to learn the soft skills for personal development which has made my expertise as a Guide a lot richer.
Now settled for sometime in Bariloche with a family (two beautiful daughters Sarah and Camila), I’ve decided to work more and more for myself and directly with potential clients and future friends.
Focusing mainly in tailor made programs specially developed for each individual interest. Backcountry skiing, Mountaineering, Rock cimbing, etc!!!
Looking forward to sharing some great times together!!!

I didnt choose the optimal time for my trip. Knowing that, I was kinda anxious about how it would turn out, especially when there was really bad weather and snowfall when I arrived in Bariloche. That said, Craig did its best to still make the best out of the situation. We shuffled the dates around and split the 4 days into 2&2. I just came back from the first 2 days and have two more to go, for which I'm very excited. I'm well aware that this kind of shuffling is only possible because it isnt high season yet and am very thankful for that. In terms of the climbing: I communicated my skill level to Craig and my ambition to learn the basics of trad climbing. I think his judgement in planning the itinirary was very sensible. Craig managed to push me way out of my comfort zone without completely overwhelming me. This allowed me to learn a ton in just two days and leave me hungry for more. If you wan't to "learn the ropes" of trad climbing, stick your hands into granite cracks, send the peaks of frey and have a fantastic time doing it, Craig is the guy to book your trip with

Al Borde de la Concordia on Cerro Lopez was a very cool experience for parachuting into a new area far from home. Craig made it seamless, and we had a really good day on some fine rock in a spectacular setting.

We had a great day climbing in the Frey, Bariloche and was probably one of my favourite climbs of all time, only wish I had more time. Craig was an amazing guide, full of knowledge, experience and when I'm back I'll be going climbing with him again. Can't believe he is turning 60! He only looks 35 must be all that mountain air!!

We had an amazing trip with Craig. He was incredibly professional and knowledgeable and we always felt in safe hands. The climbing was epic and the route selection was perfect, I definitely felt like I was able to try stuff which I wouldn't have the confidence to do on my own. An amazing experience which we wont forget! Thank you so much
