Alpine Rock
Looking for some climbing out of the ordinary
and into the extraordinary? Tired of the crowds at your local crag?
Alpine rock is an exciting and interesting way to challenge your
climbing ability and escape the crowds. The summit is even more
spectacular after you have climbed the face.
Travel Expenses:
There are no Slipstream guides living in these areas and so we need
to travel there. The travel expenses are typically just enough to
cover gas but sometimes include a bit of travel time for the guide
or the use of a 4wd vehicle when necessary. Sometimes we can waive
these costs when our guides are already in the area or for a longer
program. Guests are responsible for there own transportation to and
from the meeting place, usually the nearest town. Call us for more
details.
