Ice climbing on Raven Glacier lends an amazing backdrop to learn or hone your skills. Our AMGA accredited guide service teaches everything from the basics to advanced ice climbing techniques. We'll hike up 2,100 feet and 7 miles round trip on the Crow Pass trail to Raven Glacier, where we'll do our climbing. During our journey, we'll traverse through rugged terrain, which may include a series of rough trails or off-trail talus walking, boulder hopping, or cramponing on ice.

The towering Chugach Mountains, alpine glaciers, an alpine lake, mining ruins, and mountain goats are some of the incredible sights we'll see during our day of discovery!
