Alaska Mountaineering School
" The consensus is that our Alaska experience was the best trip ever... You taught us to respect where we were, but not to fear it. Learning to live on a glacier and climb to the variety of destinations we encountered seemed much more valuable than a trudge to high places and a quick return. "
— Richard Bensing, Scoutmaster for Paoli Troop 1, Paoli, PA

AMS Custom Youth Groups

Each year AMS is contracted by teen adventure companies to teach a component of their Alaska program. We currently work with The Road Less Traveled, America's Adventure Ventures Everywhere, Overland Adventures, and the Alaska 4-H Association.

AMS organizes and leads ice climbing, mountaineering skills, backpacking, winter survival, and wilderness first aid courses.

Tell us your goal, group size, and timeframe; we will come up with the professional instructors, ideal course location, and skills class list to make your organizations experience the best possible.

AMS has the logistics, equipment, and expertise to make your groups visit to Alaska rewarding and unforgettable. We hear from many companies that their AMS experience was the highlight of their participant and staff's time in Alaska.
