The Advanced Mountain Expedition Preparation course is held both in the Pyrenees (French / Spanish border near Andorre). It lasts 5 days.
It builds upon any previous experience that you may have and teaches more advanced techniques as well as those below. We use remoter locations, steeper slopes and harder routes.
We aim to turn you from a client into a mountaineer who is able to make decisions and move over mountain terrain in snow and ice.
The ratio for the instructor to clients for this course is lower and you have more immediate contact and personal mentorship.
The area is a perfect location for courses for expeditions to polar regions or the greater ranges. Led by high altitude mountaineer, Sean James this course is 5 days long with the possibility of a night spent out in the mountains.
A week long course with 5 days practical teaching whilst climbing the high mountains of the Pyrenees such as Pedraforca, Canigou, Carlit, Aneto, Pedrocomosa and many more.
Sean imparts his experiences of guiding over 15 – 8000m expeditions, including 4 times on Everest.
The course runs from December to April depending on the length of the season and conditions.
