Training for Denali and big mountain expeditions isn’t the same as training for a marathon or to be a weekend warrior. You need to establish a strong aerobic base and build strength to carry a big pack up a big mountain.

Mountain Trip has been working with Steve House and Uphill Athlete for a decade now to help provide our climbers some guidance on how to train for the specific needs of expedition climbers.  We hosted our annual Denali Training Webinar recently, if you weren’t able to join us you can watch here!
