We’re really excited about these inclusive trips we have coming up! @MountainTrip and @IRISAlpine are partnering together to host an Intro to Backcountry Skiing & Splitboarding day for those who identify as women, non-binary or transgender on January 14! The world of backcountry skiing and splitboarding can be an intimidating yet incredibly rewarding place. This trip is designed to set you up for success for your future powder days! We’ll cover gear options, strategies for staying warm and comfortable, uphill and downhill travel techniques, and relay the importance of good communication for successful ski/ride partnerships. Stay an extra day if you would like to join IRIS’s Avalanche Rescue Course on January 15. We’ll also be hosting our second annual Women’s Backcountry Ski Camp at the @TellurideHelitrax Bridal Veil Base Camp from March 10-12. Come experience what it’s like to winter camp in a 12,000-foot alpine basin with the comfort of heated tents, cots, and catered meals. For those looking to take the next step in decision making, we’ll cover assessing terrain, digging snow pits, and advancing your touring technique.

“It goes boys” Lynn Hill ⁠ ⁠ Don’t wait for someone or something to hand your dream to you or give you permission. Instead, look in the mirror and give yourself permission.

⁠ What is one tool or piece of equipment you couldn't live without? Share what you love about it and why it's invaluable in your toolbox.⁠ ⁠ For example:⁠ ⁠ Making anchors can be time-consuming when you are trying to move fast in the climbing world. ⁠ ⁠ That's why Iris Guides Love using the Quad. A Quad is an incredible tool that allows us to quickly pack up and move anchors during multi-pitch routes or when on repel. It's even helpful when we are climbing single-pitch, and many people will be climbing on the same route. We Highly suggest putting the effort in to learn how to use one properly. ⁠ ⁠ What tool or resource makes your climbing life easier?⁠ ⁠ ⁠ @blackdiamond ⁠ #liveclimbrepeat #liveskirepeat⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #learn #learntoclimb #learntoclimbtrad #learntoclimboutside #learntoclimbice #learntoclimbhigher #learntoclimbup #learntoclimbbetter #learntoclimbmountains #learntoclimbmoab #learntoclimbclass #learntoclimbcourse #learntoclimbatthecrag #climbing_is_my_passion #climbing_pictures_of_instagram #iloveclimbing #climbingisbliss #timetoclimb #womenwhoclimb #outdoorwomen #womenexplore #sheexplores #rockclimbing #unrulydreamers #sheadventures #adventurestartshere #girlswhoclimb #unitedwesend

It is incredible how the person you experience something with can change your entire perception of a place. ⁠ ⁠ Often Rifle, Colorado, is perceived to be a hard place to climb, but a little know fact is that it's an incredible place to learn if you know where the good climbs are. ⁠ ⁠ Join @irisalpine guide Lindsay Fixmer to experience exploring this climbing surprisingly friendly climbing area. ⁠ ⁠ For more information on this upcoming trip visit the link in our bio⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ @ospreypacks ⁠ #TheGoodDaysAreMade | #OldSchoolOsprey⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #learn #learntoclimb #learntoclimbtrad #learntoclimboutside #learntoclimbice #learntoclimbhigher #learntoclimbup #learntoclimbbetter #learntoclimbmountains #learntoclimbmoab #learntoclimbclass #learntoclimbcourse #learntoclimbatthecrag #climbing_is_my_passion #climbing_pictures_of_instagram #iloveclimbing #climbingisbliss #timetoclimb #womenwhoclimb #outdoorwomen #womenexplore #sheexplores #unrulydreamers #sheadventures #adventurestartshere #crimpqueen #girlswhoclimb #unitedwesend

The @petzl_official Grigri is a fantastic tool everyone should have in their arsenal when out at the single pitch crag. We don’t always use it in the winter or for multi-pitch settings, but in a single-pitch environment, there really isn’t a device that rivals it. #irisalpine #inclusiverockiceskialpine @petzl_official ⁠ #Petzl #Petzlgram

What is it with all these belay devices? Why are there so many? Which one is best for ice? Which one is best for skiing? Which one is best for Climbing? Should I use the same device for everything? Why does everyone love the gri gir? We hear you, and we are here to help! Stay tuned for advice from @Irisalpine about belay devices. We will be sharing our best secrets on how to use them and how to choose them. @blackdiamond #liveclimbrepeat #climbingisbliss #unrulydreamers #crackclimbing #unitedwesend #timetoclimb #womenexplore #tradisrad #sheexplores #iloveclimbing #adventurestartshere #womenwhoclimb #climbing_pictures_of_instagram #sheadventures #rockclimbing #womxnadventure #outdoorwomen #tradclimbing #tradclimbing #climbing_is_my_passion #liveclimbrepeat #inclusiverockiceskialpine #liveskirepea #skinupskidown #powpow #mountaineeringlife #earnyourturns #backcountry #optoutside #wildernessculture #mountaineering
