The Adirondack Mountains offer six million acres of classic rock climbs, warm swimming holes, and wandering tree-lined trails. Spend a week learning how to rock climb on some of the most famous granite rock walls on the east coast with your First Descents crew and the trusted guides at Alpine Endeavors! Downtime will be spent at a beautiful lodge outside of Keene where you’ll enjoy delicious meals, tranquil mountain views, and lots of laughs.
Program dates and communities served will be posted in winter 2023.
