UMA provided excellent instruction in the crevasse rescue skills for which I was seeking. I would not hesitate to recommend this class to others....

SUMMER courses & climbs:

Mt. Olympus, West Slabs Climb:
Join UMA guides and scale the rocky face you've admired for years that presides over the Salt Lake Valley.

Mt. Superior Classic Alpine Climb:
The prominent South Ridge of this iconic Wasatch peak rises 3,000 feet from near Snowbird Ski Resort, in Little Cottonwood Canyon, to the 11,050’ summit. Outstanding views, fun climbing moves, and an airy feeling make this a classic route in any season. Only a short approach is needed before class 3 & 4 scrambling and/or steep snow climbing begins.

Grand Teton Prep Course:
Instruction in alpine rock climbing, mitigation of mountaineering hazards, and overhanging rappel skills required for climbing the Grand Teton.


WINTER courses & climbs:

Mountaineering Skills:
Instruction in alpine snow climbing, proper use of ice axe and crampons and self-arrest techniques.

Crevasse Rescue Skills:
Instruction in glacial travel, belaying, snow anchors, raising systems and ascending a rope.

Winter Camping & Mountaineering Seminar:
During a two-day overnight seminar, learn mountaineering skills and winter camping and climb a Wasatch peak in preparation for Rainier, Aconcagua, Denali or other expedition climbing.

Mt. Superior Winter Alpine Climb:
From mid-November through June, the Suicide Chute, a classic, rock-lined, 40-degree couloir, is usually snow-filled. Crampons and ice axe are used, and we work on snow climbing skills as we approach the ridge.
