Every now and then you have the opportunity to do good work.
We are thrilled to announce that we are donating all proceeds from our April 18th, 2010 Denali climb to a small, non-profit school for kids with special needs.
The Piedra Learning Community is very special to us at Mountain Trip, as MT co-owner, Todd Rutledge's son attends their program, which provides an alternative education for kids with Sensory Processing Disorder and on the Autism Spectrum.
This expedition could be the first team to summit Denali during the 2010 season as we are currently the first team registered to attempt the highest peak in North America. We are offering special pricing for this opportunity, in the hopes that we can fill the team and raise enough money to help the Piedra Learning Community with a down payment on a new facility.
This team will head up glacier before the Park Service, and will experience a West Buttress climb in as close to a wilderness setting as you can get (outside of a winter ascent- brrr!!!). Late April conditions are a bit cooler than early May, but we have seen the same success rates on our past April ascents as during the rest of the season.
If you or someone you know is looking for an adventure with the added bonus of helping do something special for some really deserving kids, please contact us. Spaces are limited.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
