At it's core, mountaineering seems pretty simple. One foot in front of the other for hours (sometimes days) on end, slowly chipping away at the behemoth in front of you. But just because it's simple, doesn't mean it's easy. Mountaineering takes endurance, technique, skill, and an ability to be comfortable in uncomfortable situations.

At Whittaker Mountaineering, we've been outfitting the world's best mountaineers for decades, and we've picked up a few things over the years. We, in collaboration with the guides at our sister company RMI Expeditions, have distilled that knowledge into a series of guides. This is the collective knowledge of our Guide Team, leveraged from decades of guiding and climbing the great mountains of the world. It is mountain philosophy simplified.
