I gained increased skills and confidence in ice climbing, as well as mountaineering skills. The guide was extremely knowledgeable and encouraging. I can't wait to work with Seb again.
Sébastien was a fantastic guide. I had a great time and learned a lot. I would definitely use him as a guide; the climbing and route choices were also excellent.
