Description

At 13,775 feet (4,199 m), the Grand Teton in Wyoming is truly grand. As such, it is a famous mountaineering challenge. Climbing this stunning mountain is no easy task. It requires preparation and skills. Before tackling the Gran Teton we offer this unique Salt Lake alpine climbing prep course that will train you for the big occasion.

Skills you will acquire in this course include multi-pitch alpine rock climbing, belaying from a ledge, overhanging rappels and other mountaineering skills. You will also learn everything you need to know about climbing equipment. This includes how to make knots and manage rope, how to optimise footwork, and traditional climbing skills such as belaying, rappelling and multi-pitch climb transitions.

The course will last a full day and will be led by an experienced Teton guide. It is open to everyone, regardless of experience and skill. However, do keep in mind that this is a demanding climb that will require you to have a good fitness level.

Do you have your sights set on the top of the Great Teton? Would you like some techniques and practice to tackle this challenging ascent? Then book your place now and join me on this Grand Teton alpine climbing prep course in the stunning Salt Lake region in Utah!

Would you like to train for some other challenging climbs including the Aconcagua, Denali or Rainier peaks? Then we also offer this two-day overnight climbing expedition seminar in the Wasatch mountains!

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge.
