Would you like to work for a world leader in organised expedition climbing and trekking?

We are slowly but surely re-writing the rules on how big mountain trips are costed, and operated. In 2004 alone, we hosted over 200 climbers on expeditions around the globe. This season we were by far the busiest operator in Pakistan, with trips to Trango Towers, Broad Peak, Gasherbrum II, Spantik, Snow Lake, and K2 base-camp.

We are looking for highly experienced guides to join our team. You will need to bring with you an attitude and desire that will see you enthusiastically sharing your experience, wisdom, and skills, with aspirant climbers and trekkers wishing to enhance theirs.

You may also have experience in a particular area of the world, where you know you can circumvent the normal cost excess in ground based logistics, and assist in providing affordable ground services. We are looking to expand our network with similar minded companies and independent guides.

Interested in getting involved or have a suggestion for a new trip you can help operate?

After upgrading our website we have recently added a dispatch home to make it easier to follow our expeditions and see past ones. We are now slowly adding back our trips from years gone by. Let us know if there is one you miss and we'll move it up in the queue!
