Mount Baker Ski Descent Gear List

Zack McGill

All programs begin with a gear check and orientation, during which we go over trip logistics in detail. Please bring all of the items on the gear list and be prepared to unpack your kit with your group and guide. This is a comprehensive gear list that includes items needed for trips in all weather and conditions. Some items may end up being left behind if they are not needed. If you have extra items that you’re unsure about, bring them and run them by your guide. We’ll help you refine your kit to strike a balance of being prepared and keeping your pack light. We rent ice axes, crampons, and harnesses. Please let us know if you need rentals so we can be sure to get your needs met! We provide tents, wag bags, ropes, fuel, breakfast and dinner. Please bring your own lunch and snack food.

Spring Steelhead in Stanley

Guy Robins

Stanley is often one of the coldest places in the nation. so the most important aspect of this trip is to stay warm. I would encourage you to think of overdressing when it comes to layering. If you are not sure if you should bring certain extra warm clothing, bring it.

Denali Expedition

Mountain Trip

<div>The following is a list of specific <strong>required</strong> gear for climbing Denali with Mountain Trip. Unless an item is listed as *optional, it is required to participate. Your guides will do a thorough gear check in Alaska prior to departure; any gear or clothing that is not determined to be adequate will need to be replaced at the discretion of the guides. Climbing gear needs to be in good condition. If your helmet is cracked it’s time to buy a new one. Only bring good gear that is in very good condition, as it will all get tested, perhaps to the extreme!<br><br></div><div>Many of the items on the list need to fit you well in order for you to fully enjoy your experience on the mountain. Please plan ahead with equipment purchased for your trip so you can be certain your gear fits you well. 7,800′ on Denali is not the place to discover your pack is too small for your torso or that your boots give you blisters. Recommended items reflect the opinions of our guides. We have used and have faith in all of our recommendations, but they may not necessarily fit or work for you.<br><br></div><div>Please follow this list closely and don’t hesitate to call or email us for clarifications, or to solicit an opinion about anything you are considering. There is a great selection of gear available in Anchorage, but please plan ahead and order any items that are size specific. We want you to be as prepared as possible for your expedition.<br><br></div>

Alpine Rock Climbing: High Mountain Traverses

Wasatch Mountain Guides

<div>These adventures are challenging enough to intrigue anyone interested in exciting ridge scrambling with a touch of alpine climbing in the Wasatch, but not as committing as to exclude those who are new to the sport.<br><br></div><div>Our high mountain traverses are an excellent adventure option for those looking to push themselves physically and aerobically in an incredible and breathtaking high altitude setting.&nbsp;</div>

Backcountry Gear

Arctos Guides

Winter Touring

Wasatch Mountain Guides

<div>We recommend tech/pin bindings and skis with a 99mm+ waist width for winter conditions, climbing skins sized and cut for your skis or board, ski Poles (collapsible for split boarders) and rubber voile style ski straps.</div>

Backcountry Ski Gear

Mountain Trip

<div>The following is a list of guide-recommended gear for Backcountry Skiing with Mountain Trip. In general, you’ll want a selection of warm layers that work together. Clothing designed for a day of resort skiing is fine; however, dedicated touring clothing is better—specifically touring skis or a splitboard, and boots, which differ from a resort setup. Whatever gear you choose, please make sure it fits well so you fully enjoy your experience in the mountains.<br><br></div><div>All avalanche rescue equipment (beacon, shovel and probe) is included with the cost of the trip. Mountain Trip has a fleet of top-of-the-line Black Diamond touring skis, skins and poles, as well as La Sportiva touring boots and Black Diamond airbag skiing packs available for rent.<br><br></div><div>In addition to what we provide and have available to rent, there is also a good selection of gear available in Telluride and Ouray. If you have any specific questions about what you might need, please don’t hesitate to reach out to the Mountain Trip office.<br><br></div>

British Columbia Lodge Trips

Amora Vida Guiding

<div>Joining us on a lodge trip to British Columbia? Lucky! I think these are the best ski trips on earth, and you'll soon find out why. A week in the wilderness with good friends, surrounded by the beauty of British Columbia and all the powder you can ski, all to yourselves? Count me in.&nbsp;<br><br>Since we'll travel to the lodge by helicopter, we need to pack light. Most huts allow no more than 40 lbs (18 kg) of gear per person, not including skis (or alcohol... BYO). Here's my preferred gear list for British Columbia lodge trips.</div>
