Guided Rock & Alpine Climbing Trips from Colorado Springs with an AMGA and IFMGA Certified Guide
Colorado Springs is the perfect launchpad for excursions into the Colorado Alpine.
Rock Climbing trips can include Black Canyon National Park, or just a short drive up the Front Range, Eldorado Canyon and The Flatirons of Boulder.
Remote, intimidating, beautiful, challenging, committing….all these words can be used to describe rock climbing in ‘The Black’ in Gunnison, Co. Long, committing multi-pitch traditional climbs beginning in the 5.9 grade is what this place is all about. A truly unique, and wild guided rock climbing experience in one of the most geologically astounding places on Earth, ‘The Black’ is Colorado’s big wall climbing destination, albeit in a remote wilderness setting.
Not far from our backdoor, we are familiar and comfortable on it’s 2,000’+ foot high walls, set amidst a chasm barely 700′ wide, and can help offer a truly unforgettable guided rock climbing experience here.
Alpine Trips can include Crested Butte’s surrounding Elk Mountains, San Juan Mountains and the Sangre De Cristo Range, Colorado.
With 54 mountains over 14,000′ Colorado has an endless amount of adventure for the Alpine climber, and more ‘high altitude’ summits than anywhere else in the Lower 48. Colorado has been our home and backyard for the past 2 decades, we know our home state’s mountains intimately, and Lotus Alpine Adventures can provide the perfect alpine climbing objective and experience for all skill levels and abilities. Join us for an easy 3rd class scramble to the summit of one of the states iconic 14ers, or tackle lesser known and lower summits via technical 5th class rock climbing and/or snow and ice climbing.
From Colorado Springs, we have access to many of Colorado’s more formidable alpine climbing objectives, 14er’s such as Pyramid Peak, Capitol Peak, and the Maroon Bells, and have dozens of alpine climbing ascents, guided and personal, via a number of different routes on these peaks (as well as a few ‘extreme’ ski descents as well), and we never tire of their engaging and rugged beauty.
As well, as being within easy driving distance of the magnificent and truly rugged San Juan Mountains of SW Colorado.
