The Climb


Ski Mountaineering is considered to be one of the most dangerous sports in the world.
Coupling the skills needed for an arduous climb with the technique and nerve required for a dangerous ski descent, the top practitioners are elite athletes.
Ski mountaineering demands unparalleled physical and metal endurance, perfect body control, years of experience in the mountains, and the ability to make split-second life-or-death decisions.
Definitely not for the faint hearted, ski mountaineering offers world-class alpinists the ultimate rush, right on the edge of man’s physical limits.
