We teach instructional courses and lead guided climbs in the Alaska Range, Talkeetna Mountains, and Chugach Mountains. We are open year round but most of our field time takes place between mid-March and mid-September.

We are certified by the National Park Service and authorized to operate in Denali National Park & Preserve.

Testimonials

We had the most amazing experience and great opportunity with our guide, Brian McCullough, in learning beginning mountaineering. It is a wonderful opportunity to get your 'feet wet' with mountaineering. (2-Day Glacier Trek)

A spectacular landing on the seldom visited Dall Glacier and two magnificent nights spent on the ice, encircled by grandeur. Thank you, AMS! (2-Day Glacier Trek)

You guys were all great. Your company really has a family feel to it...you really put the competition to shame. My last climb was with another (highly regarded) company, and trust me, there is no comparison. Hands down you guys were superior. Keep doing what you are doing. When I climb Denali in a year, you guys will get my call....I have you on speed dial. (12-Day Mountaineering Course)
