Traveling and living in the alpine environment can pose many challenges, and often times it is the little tips and tricks that make existing in the alpine more enjoyable. Many of these tips and tricks have been passed down from climber to climber and guide to guide, but some of them are stumbled upon randomly and seem so inconsequential that they often don’t get shared.
Well – I would like to change that! In an effort to do so, I’m introducing a new series to this blog, called “Tricks in the Alpine.” In each episode, we will attempt to share alpine trickery that you may or may not know already. Please feel free to comment on how you’ve used these tricks, expanded on them, or look forward to using them!



That’s it for this episode! Leave us some tips and we will take some photos and post them for the rest of our readers!
