Northeast Mountaineering, LLC. is a full-service mountain guide outfitter based in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. Our mission is to share inspirational, educational and entertaining mountain experiences in NH and beyond. Our programs and operational procedures are built on education, mentoring and investing time and energy in the development of our clients. While we focus on introducing and teach our clients to safely navigate the vertical world we maintain a level of competency to guide any objective world-wide.Importantly, in choosing to voluntarily engage in the Mountain Mentor Program that operates in the backcountry and/or wilderness setting, individuals must understand that they accept and assume the inherent risks of these activities.

Most of the understanding and techniques addressed during this program require extensive practice before you can expect to be proficient. No program, this one included, can provide all that experience.

To establish and maintain proficiency in the knowledge and techniques covered in this program, you will have to practice extensively and regularly on your own during and after leaving the program. Additionally, climbing skills and techniques continue to evolve as new research becomes available. To remain current, you will need to seek out opportunities for continued education.

No program can fully guarantee your safety, either during the program or after you leave. During the program, the instructors will manage risk and involve you in discussions about what is appropriate and what is not. They will inform you of any unusual or exceptional hazards or risks involved in carrying out lessons and exercises. Whether you will be “safer” after the course or not depends entirely on how you apply your new skills and knowledge when in the mountains.
