Welcome to Alpine Endeavors.

We are an AMGA accredited guide service based in the Gunks (Shawangunk) and Catskill mountains of New York, operating daily throughout New York and Connecticut.

We are comprised of experienced, passionate climbers who are professionally trained guides and instructors. All of our guides are state licensed, skilled in wilderness medicine, and trained and certified by the American Mountain Guides Association.

We offer professional climbing instruction and guiding to climbers of all ability levels for rock climbing, ice climbing, alpine climbing and mountaineering. In addition to our climbing services, we offer guided hikes and snowshoe outings in our local areas, navigation skills, team building events, and wilderness medical courses. If you are interested in climbing a specific climb, or looking to improve your technical skills, climbing ability, or general outdoor wilderness skills, we can help you reach your goals.

View the photos from our June trip to Mount Rainier. We were awarded another permit for 2012 and will be taking applications for the trip soon.
