The Alpine Club, the world’s first mountaineering club, was founded in 1857. For over 150 years, members have been at the leading edge of worldwide mountaineering development and exploration.
With membership, experienced and aspiring alpinists benefit from a varied meets programme, regional lectures with notable guest speakers, reduced rates at many alpine huts, opportunity to apply for grants to support expeditions, significant discounts at many UK retailers, extensive networking contacts, access to the AC Library and maps - and more!
Becoming a MemberEvents Calendar
We are delighted to be joined by Dave Wynne-Jones, an accomplished alpinist, ski mountaineer, expedition leader, and former President of the Eagle Ski Club, as well as the Alpine Club’s Meets Secretary. Dave has summited all the 4,000m peaks of the Alps and led over 20 expeditions to remote mountains across the globe. He was inspired to write his book, An Expedition Handbook, after finding it impossible to fully cover his experiences within the two-hour seminars he led at symposia hosted by Plas y Brenin.
In this lecture, Dave will present several case studies from his mountaineering adventures and share key lessons, with a particular focus on expedition planning in an era of rapid climate change.
