Denali Cancellation/Refund Policy

- All balances are due 120 days prior to departure date, unless otherwise specified.
- Full refunds, less deposit, will be provided 120 days or more prior to the expedition date.
- We will provide a 50% refund 90–119 days prior to expedition date.
- No refunds will be provided 89 or fewer days prior to the expedition date.

Trip Cancellation Insurance
As there are many unforeseen circumstances that may occur during or leading up to the trip, we highly recommend trip cancellation insurance.
In many situations, this may be the only way to receive a refund for unused services.
In brief, trip cancellation insurance may allow you to get reimbursement if you need to cancel your expedition when you are not entitled to a refund from Alpine Ascents.
Alpine Ascents International offers a plan in conjunction with our travel insurance partner.
Our expedition was a superb trip. A once-in-a-lifetime adventure. I cannot say enough good things about my guides. They were superb for twenty days of trial and tribulations. By the time my expedition was over I considered them both good friends.
