Expedition Pages

To further the advancement of mountaineering and the mountaineering spirit, the Mazamas Expedition committee assists and encourages climbers to plan trips to worldwide destinations.  The Mazamas support expedition climbing through grants, training, and touring slideshows and conferences.  In addition, the Mazamas library also provides expedition research material.  Funds for expedition grants come from course tuition, ticket sales at slideshows and individuals who donate money to our grant fund.  Climbers do not need to be Mazama members to qualify for a grant.

We teach an expedition training class every year, in either a short weekend clinic or a longer two month course.

We offer expedition grant money to qualified individuals and teams.

We have expedition planning contacts of Mazamas who have been there and done that.

Expedition News – The Mazamas subscribes to a monthly newsletter of the expeditions around the world. See summaries online at Expedition News or the full newsletter in the library.
