    Mountaineering Courses/Instruction

    Hello,

    In case some of the members of your tramping club are keen on attempting something a bit more challenging than what they've done before, we just wanted to offer some options for you to consider:

    1) A crossing of Fitzgerald Pass via the Jubilee Route - requires competence with crampons and ice-axe. (Don't attempt this unguided because it took several attempts for us to find a safe route.)

    2) A climb of Mt Sefton (from surf to summit - not by helicopter!) - once again this requires good crampon skills. See Mount Sefton info:
    http://www.alpinerecreation.com/otherpeaks.html

    3) For those who to have professional tuition on climbing skills we have 4 day or 6-day climbing courses:

    4) The Ball Pass Trek – suitable for seasoned trampers who do not want to carry a heavy pack:

    We offer a 20% discount on the normal price for group bookings of 6-8 people for Ball Pass. For the Introductory Climbing Course there's a 10% discount for a group booking of 3 and 20% for a group booking for 4.

    If you think any of your members could be interested, we'd be most grateful if you could include this info in a newsletter or forward it by e-mail.

    Many thanks,
    Anne Braun-Elwert
