Trips Ice Climbing

Join us this winter for an adventure you’ll never forget! Courses are progressive and we offer something for every skill level. Join us at our New Paltz base camp where we will gear up and separate into ability groups. We will then be spirited by our Urban Sherpa coaches to various headwalls depending on weather and ice accumulation. We provide all climbing equipment, including plastic boots, ice axes, crampons and all climbing equipment.

In our Beginner courses you’ll learn what all that sharp pointy stuff is and how all it all works. Our professional instructors will get you outside and climbing ice in no time at all. The entire day will be spent outside, progressing from low-angled slabs to vertical ice.

Our Intermediate and Advanced courses will be tailored to your skills and goals.
