as a safe and exciting activity that can be enjoyed by the entire family. Our instructors are highly
skilled professional guides who are dedicated to teaching the art of climbing and who provide the
skills and confidence necessary for you to safely enjoy your alpine adventures.


The Summit Climb of the Gallatin Tower is Montana Alpine Guides' most popular half-day climb and
is an outstanding climb for the first-time climber. We have guided climbers as young as 5 and as old
as 70 on this climb, and we would enjoy climbing with you too. We have an impeccable safety
record, with no accidents in over 1,000 trips.

Enjoy climbing and want to take it to the next level? In the Advanced Climbing Class, skilled guides
teach anchoring, leading (traditional and sport), gear placement, rope handling, and advanced
climbing technique. Participants must have previously taken a class equivalent to the Beginning
Climbing Class. The cost is $100/climber.

Ice Climbing. Hyalite Canyon is the largest grouping of natural water ice in Montana and until the
snow gets deep is easily accessible by car from Bozeman. The canyon and its drainages support
over 70 ice climbs from short topropable climbs to climbs that have never been repeated. Climbers
from all over the world come to Bozeman to test their water ice climbing skills. Hyalite Canyon
because of its easy access and many climbing options is an exceptional place to learn to ice
climbing. Many moderate routes also allow access to a multitude of half day and day long ice
climbs. The beauty and excitement of climbing a frozen waterfall for the first time is something a
climber will never forget and is the capstone experience for even the most seasoned rock climber.
If you are in the Bozeman area during late October (most years) come climb the frozen waterfalls
in Hyalite Canyon. Montana Alpine Guides is the only guide service permitted to guide ice climbing
in this world renowned ice climbing destination. We can customize a day of ice climbing instruction
or guide clients on multi-pitch ice climbing routs.

Montana Alpine Guides plans and runs international climbing and skiing trips to South America.
Ever dreamt of climbing the highest peaks in the hemisphere? Or skiing powder on untracked
volcanoes. Montana Alpine Guides can help. At Montana Alpine Guides we feel that the best way to
guide international climbing and skiing is to let the group chose their own expedition.

Thank You
Mike Cooperstein Owner Montana Alpine Guides
