Mount Baker | Koma Kulshan — Climb + Ski Descent Testimonials

“The experience was fantastic. I learned so much about climbing on a glaciated mountain and what’s its like to be part of an expedition. I also learned a lot about myself. The sense of accomplishment is huge and will stick with me for a long time.”

“This was another great expedition with Alpine Ascents! Every step of the trip was very enjoyable and I had a great time with all of the guides. The guides were very nice and took the time to get to know each member of the group. The food was amazing once again and it is one of the things that I now look forward to besides potentially getting to the summit.”

“Fantastic wilderness experience!  Mt. Baker feels like it’s a million miles from anywhere.”
