Do you have plans to climb a big glaciated peak this year? If yes, this special joinable Two-Day Glacier Skills/Crevasse Rescue course is for you. These skills, like many we use in the mountains, are highly perishable. If not put to use regularly, you can lose them. So whether this is your first time or you’re looking for a refresher, you’ll get some terrific instruction from […]
Taking stock of what we offer, in who we are, and who we serve, we realize we’re brimming with an unlimited source of new adventures right here in New Hampshire. Sure, we offer all the staple activities of the guiding industry, stuff like hiking/snowshoeing, mountaineering, ice climbing, rock climbing, and backcountry skiing, but we also offer so much more. Our guides possess a sense of spirit […]
We made an icon, as we do for all our offerings. You can see it inset to the right. It has jagged, pointy little things on it called mountains. This is meaningful as being more than mere art or decoration as it is indicative of where you’re headed after graduating this 5- to 10-day Advanced Alpine Skills program. By design, this new and exciting program is […]
Warmth in the winter is best found from within. If you manage to do that, then you’ll realize it’s easy to stay warm in the winter. So how do you manage it? Well, you get out there and be active in it. That’s what AAA suggests in this Redline Guiding-inclusive article: “Warm up to these 10 fun outdoor winter activities.” Thanks for telling people about us, […]

We here at Redline Guiding, along with Rockhopper Races LLC, are pleased to announce that we have received our first of four 2022 Wilderness First Aid (WFA) dates from SOLO. Specifically we are now open to registrations for the weekend of February 12th-13th, 2022. This course, as usual, will be held at the AMC’s Joe Dodge Lodge — Pinkham Notch Visitor Center — and CPR/AED training […]
This is not one of our official Adventure or Other Services offerings, but it may be in the very near future as Redline Guiding teams up with a dedicated Mt Washington Valley Yogi, Christie Ann Rochette. In the meantime, enjoy this video about this latest hike yoga/meditation event. The group was led and videographed by Redline Guide Mike Cherim. Great job, Christie and crew… Thanks for […]
We recently ran a two-day Wilderness Navigation class for a mother-daughter team. Nothing unusual there, except for one thing: we rarely ever make blog posts about our classes due to a few factors, but this time, seemingly to the amusement of our guests, we made a whole 22:33 motion picture about their experience. Check it out (contains some reminders for past students)… Great job everyone!
We are sometimes asked to do things that, for us, are outside the norm. If we feel we can deliver to our usual and now expected level of service, however, we try. For example, we’ve twice offered a convenient porter service setting up someone’s backpacking camp for them so they didn’t have to so they could better enjoy the hike. Then there was that time we […]
We recently announced that we were going to try something new: A Yoga and Meditation Sunrise (with some delicious hot tea served, oh yes). Well, it happened, we did it, and it was well received and, we feel, a success. This trip was led by our newest Redline Guide Samantha Fairfield. Yoga and mediation are specialties of Sam’s, so to speak, so this offering was a […]
We just completed a private two-day wilderness navigation class with two students. Day one was a virtual half/live half — it works so well doing it this way. And day two was a more extreme backcountry test. The class was led on days one and two by Redline Guides Mike Cherim and Ken Hodges, respectively. There’s not much more to tell that the photos won’t cover. […]
Here’s an idea we came up with for Memorial Day weekend: Individuals, couples, or families can head up to the Mt Washington Valley on Saturday May 29th, taking their time, enjoying the ride. Once they arrive they can check in to one of the numerous hotels in the area (call us for a recommendation). The rest of the afternoon is spent shopping, checking out some local […]
