Alpine Club Expeditions
In addition to supporting a limited number of private Members' expeditions, the Alpine Club organises annual expeditions to often remote and little-known mountain areas (See List below). In contrast to the private expeditions, the latter are open to all members, subject to qualifying criteria and numbers. Each year up to three private expeditions and at least one Alpine Club Expedition will be subsidised by the AC Climbing Fund, which is generously supported by First Ascent.
