If climbing peaks and skiing back down them is your jam, then high altitude ski mountaineering in Peru has got to be on the top of your list. Peru’s Cordillera Blanca mountain range is a hub of high altitude alpinism. Modern ski equipment and interest is finally finding its way to these peaks, and this expedition, led by two IFMGA Mountain Guides Mark Smiley and Jed Porter, is at the forefront of this skiing revolution. A guided trip of this caliber, to this area, is one-of-a-kind. A truly unique experience not to be missed.
Mark Smiley and Jed Porter and Janelle Smiley have skied classic peaks and first descents in this area, and are ready to deliver an excellent experience for you.
We will first climb and ski Nevado Pisco (18,866 ft), and then raise the bar even higher by climbing and skiing Copa (20,302 ft). A blend of culture, pure hard work, and jaw-dropping views make this a trip something you will probably tell your grandkids about.
