The Presidential Traverse is one of the most challenging and fun winter mountaineering trips on the east coast. The experience is highly dependant on the weather. Sunny days can bring a quick pleasurable experience, harsh weather can make you run for cover. It is a good test of one's winter mountaineering skills, many use this as a training for trips to Alaska and the polar regions; the area is known for the worst weather in the world. We offer three to four day programs to help increase your chances of success. Traveling light, being well prepared and having a route plan for poor weather and with escape routes are just a few of the requirements to complete before attempting the traverse.

Our trips are offered throughout the year - rock climbing mainly in summer; ice climbing from December through March, and most presidential traverse happen in March when there is significant snow and longer days.
