Climbing a 14-er

Climb a 14,000ft Mountain!

Colorado has more than 50 peaks over 14,000ft high and you being an adventurer, you need to have climbed at least one of them simply to experience this incredible feeling of summiting one of the country's highest mountains. There are climbs for any level hiker but you do need to be an good physical condition for this strenuous adventure. There is no climbing gear (ropes, etc.) needed for any of the climbs we do, so you don't need any mountaineering experience. Beginner climbs are more gradual while advanced climbs require hand-and-foot work in some sections as well as the ability to handle vertigo (fear of heights). All climbs are full day adventures which usually take about 10-12 hours in total depending on weather conditions and the particular mountain.

IMPORTANT

A major credit card is required to hold your reservation. We charge 50% of your total at the time of reservation and on the morning of your scheduled activity (and after assessing the weather conditions) your credit card will be charged the remaining balance (50%).
To cancel a reservation, contact us no later than 72 hrs before the departure time of your trip. For late cancelations, your credit card will be charged 50% of the total. No-shows are non-refundable.
Weather in the Rockies can be unpredictable so bring some extra clothes with you. "Layering" is the best method of clothing for activities in the mountains. We also recommend wearing your bathing suit and bringing a towel, sunscreen, and small backpack for personal belongings. Please consider that the temperature difference between the city and the rafting location could be as much as 10 degrees.
Proper hydration is essential for performing activities at high altitude. Even though a sportsdrink is provided, you may want to bring an extra bottle. Some people encounter headaches due to the elevation. Aspirin is helpful in such case.
Denver Adventures can cancel the activity any time due to weather conditions or other factors. We will refund your money or apply it to a future trip.
The degree of difficulty of your hike depends on the information you provide on the Liability Waiver and Health Questionnaire and when you reserve your adventure.
