CYBERCASTS

Alpine Ascents provides family and friends the opportunity to follow our climbs as they proceed. Utilizing state-of-the-art technology, we receive regular audio dispatches from the climbers and post them on our website. Not only does one feel the excitement of watching a team as it moves up the mountain, the archived cybercasts provide an excellent resource and learning tool when researching expeditions. Enjoy the show!

ALL CYBERCASTS

Well organized and well run. All went very smoothly and safely. Lakpa Rita was also an excellent lead climber on our critical moves on the mountain. All admin went well and the trip as a whole was a success from this perspective. I will certainly be happy to climb with AAI again and would recommend to others.
