Mountaineering

Massive and more remote, Canada's highest peak (5959m.) is much less climbed than Denali, its northern neighbor. As you ascend its flanking glaciers and then persevere in the thin air to cross its vast summit plateau you'll be continually distracted by the realization that you are in one of the most beautiful places on Earth. Such a summit is a lifetime prize! 2000: May 15 - June 7 Price: $5700 ($3820 US) Prerequisites: Intermediate mountaineering or ski mountaineering experience. (Click here for more details) |
This is a mountain with extraordinary presence, an extraordinary place to see in the next millennium! 'Penitentes' crowd the glaciers, surreal sunsets flare magenta and purple whilst powerful winds and thin air demand the utmost attention of climbers. This huge 6962m peak, highest in the Americas, rears from an arid high desert 1600km south of the Equator. 2000 - 2001: 27 December, 2000 to January 19, 2001 Price: $4700 US Prerequisites: Basic mountainering experience.

Alpamayo is a stunning 5947m peak in the Cordillera Blanca. It has been called the most beautiful peak in the world.
