Alpenglow Expeditions

Alpenglow Expeditions was founded by Adrian Ballinger in 2004 after he worked for nearly a decade as head guide and director of one of the largest international guide services in the USA. Alpenglow Expeditions was created to combine our guides’ passion for climbing big mountains with their desire to teach others. We focus on high altitude expeditions, technical rock and ice climbing, and ski mountaineering on five continents. All of our trips are led by AMGA certified guides with a talent for sharing their knowledge with others. Our expeditions challenge climbers to expand their decision-making and become more efficient and competent in the mountains. Every one of these expeditions is run as a partnership between the guide and team member, ensuring maximum learning, enjoyment and safety.
