Without members and donors like you, we would fall short F of accomplishing our goals. I recently came across some interesting statistics in the Outdoor Foundation’s annual Outdoor Recreation Participation Report. In 2008, 4.7 million people in the United States participated in bouldering, sport climbing, or indoor climbing, and 2.3 million people went trad climbing, ice climbing, or mountaineering. It is also interesting to note that less than 1% of these climbers are members of the Access Fund. And the majority of our support comes from membership. We are working on climbing issues all across the country, from California to Maine. While we have had many successes and our reach is broad, just imagine what would be possible if we were able to increase our membership base: more grants, more direct support of local climbing organizations, and, ultimately, more climbing areas open and protected. We could use your help. Chances are a number of your climbing friends and partners aren’t current Access Fund members. Please take a moment to tell them about our work and the impor- tance of joining us, not to mention benefits like discounts on gear, grants for local projects, timely information and alerts about local access issues, and a subscrip- tion to the Vertical Times.

  • SAINT ELIAS RANGE ALPINE MOUNTAINEERING EQUIPMENT LIST © Copyright 2004 American Alpine Institute
    SAINT ELIAS RANGE ALPINE MOUNTAINEERING EQUIPMENT LIST © Copyright 2004 American Alpine Institute The Saint Elias Range is a land of extremes. Intense maritime storms, which may drop several feet of snow, can be quickly followed by a week of clear, sunny, and remarkably warm weather. The daily temperature fluctuations on the glaciers can be astonishingly large. With the ice filled valleys acting as giant reflector ovens, a clear cold night of 0F can become a sweltering 80F day only 8 hours later. The clothing you bring, therefore, should be selected with an eye towards versatility. In this regard, the layering effect achieved by a number of thinner garments will be preferable to one or two extremely thick items. Clothing should allow good freedom of movement and be light in weight. In May, at our base camp, lows at night normally range from 10F to 20F while the day- time highs climb up to comfortable above freezing temperatures. Average temperatures in June normally are about 5F to 10F warmer than those in May. Mid-day in June, the lower glaciers of the Saint Elias can be uncomfortably hot, even wearing shorts and a T-shirt, while night time lows dip to near the freezing point. Snow, sometimes lots of it, can fall during either month. Rain is not uncommon, especially at the lower elevations. In this program group climbing equipment and group camping gear (tents, stoves and cooking equipment) are supplied by AAI. Food is also provided though you may wish to bring along a small amount of your favorite snack food.

  • Gear Brands List & Lexicon
    Gear Brands List & Lexicon Mountain climbing is an equipment intensive activity. Having good equipment in the mountains increases safety and your comfort level and therefore your chance of having a successful climb. Alpine Ascents does not sell equipment nor do we receive any outside incentive to recommend a particular brand name over another. Our recommendations are based on quality, experience and performance with your best interest in mind. This lexicon represents years of in-field knowledge and experience by a multitude of guides, teachers and climbers. We have found that by being well-equipped on climbs and expeditions our climbers are able to succeed in conditions that force other teams back. No matter which trip you are considering you can trust the gear selection has been carefully thought out to every last detail. People new to the sport often find gear purchasing a daunting chore. We recommend you examine our suggested brands closely to assist in your purchasing decisions and consider renting gear whenever possible. Begin preparing for your trip as far in advance as possible so that you may find sale items. As always we highly recommend consulting our staff of experts prior to making major equipment purchases. A Word on Layering One of the most frequently asked questions regarding outdoor equipment relates to clothing, specifically (and most importantly for safety and comfort), proper layering. There are Four basic layers you will need on most of our trips, including our Mount Rainier programs. They are illustrated below: Underwear

  • Bradley and Alek's Patrasi Expedition 2014, Kanjiroba Himal
    Bradley and Alek's Patrasi Expedition 2014, Kanjiroba Himal. A report by Aleksey Zholobenko and Bradley Morrell. December 2014 1 Summary On the 13th of October 2014, this lightweight Anglo-Russian expedition, sponsored by the Alpine Club and the BMC, set off to the Upper Dolpo region of Nepal in order to attempt to climb the fifteen hundred meter north face of Patrasi (6450m) in the Kanjiroba Himal. Following a seven day approach (four with porters, three without) from Jumla by the Chaudhabise Khola via col 4942, a basecamp was established at roughly 4200m at the head of the Chyandayng Khola on the 24 th of October and following reconnaissance, an attempt on the face made, despite snow conditions which may be inadequately described as horrific. The attempt was subsequently aborted at around 5400m on the 30 st of October on account of one of the expedition members acquiring mildly frostbitten toes . Following a five day rest and recovery period, the expedition made an exploratory retreat down the Chyandayng Khola to avoid exposing the toes to potential refreezing on col 4942. In the process, the unsuitability of this route for approaches and retreats to the north face of the mountain was confirmed. The expedition team followed the Mugu Karnali and arrived at Talchi airport on the 12th of November. The expedition subsequently returned to the UK safely on the 17 th of November as planned. With the exception of the unseasonal storm between 14 th and 16th of October and moderate snowfall on the 25th and 26th of October, the weather was fair, with almost no cloud or precipitation.

  • NZ Winter Equipment Notes 2017-18
    NEW ZEALAND WINTER EQUIPMENT NOTES Due to the nature of the mountain environment, equipment and clothing must be suitable for its intended purpose. It must be light, remain effective when wet or iced, and dry easily. These notes will help you make informed choices, which will save you time and money. Bring along the mandatory clothing, wet weather gear and any equipment you already own that is on the equipment checklist. This gives you an opportunity to practice with your gear and equipment so that you become efficient at using it out in the field. Adventure Consultants is able to offer clients good prices on a range of clothing and equipment. Please feel free to contact us if you need assistance with making a purchase or advice on specific products. Body Wear There are numerous fabrics which are both water-resistant and breathable, such as Gore-Tex, Event, Polartec Neoshell, Pertex Shield and Entrant etc. These fabrics are expensive but can last for years if well looked after. Shell clothing should be seam sealed during the manufacturing process (tape sealed on the seams) or it will leak through the stitching. It also should be easy to move in and easy to put on and take off when wearing gloves or mitts. Shell clothing made of PVC or similar totally waterproof non-breathable material is not suitable, as moisture cannot escape when you are exerting energy, which results in getting wet from the inside out! Therefore, fabric breathability is very important when you are active in the mountains.

For me, like many climbers and walkers, the day the clocks change is a notable date in the annual calendar. All of a sudden the winter blues start to fade away, the daffodils come into bloom, the evenings lengthen, optimism returns, plans start to become reality – it’s summertime and it's time to head for the hills! The spring and summer months are indeed a wonderful time in the climbing year-book. This year, the clocks went forward over the Easter weekend and for some of us, the sun even shone. Honeypot areas such as Snowdonia, the Lakes, the Yorkshire Dales and other National Parks were heaving with visitors: Portland, Pembroke and Gogarth bus- tled - people were out there doing it and the countryside was well and truly back in business. Personally, I had an unusually quiet Easter. Unlike many others who headed for Scotland, the Alps, Fontainebleau or Sardinia, I stayed at home, recharged my batteries, ate good food, drank Abso- lution and made plans for the year. A couple of long walks took me up and around the Kinder plateau, following in the footsteps of the Kinder trespassers on one occasion and scoping out some new lines on another.
