Join us in Lake City, Colorado for world-class ice climbing! Nestled into a little valley southwest of Gunnison, Lake City is home to two large ice parks that are open to the public and built for ice climbing. The walls are around 70-110 feet in height, and consist of routes ranging in difficulty from WI3-5.
No matter your ability level, these two-day trips are designed to make you a better ice climber through mileage on the ice and technical skills taught by DMG guides. Guides will work with you one-on-one to ensure you improve your skills and are having a good time while on the ice!
Ice climbing gear can be provided for no extra charge. This includes boots, crampons, ice axes, harnesses, and helmets.
The below trips have shared lodging if you are interested in joining for lodging as well. The shared lodging is around $200-$250 on average for two nights. Lodging is not included in the package, so this is an additional $200-$250. For larger groups, it's nice to rent an Airbnb with everyone staying together, but that's not required. DMG has connections for discounted rates ifyou wish to get a separate place. Transportation can also be arranged and carpooling options may be available upon request.
