02 Climb North America’s New Via Ferrata

-

Rocky Mountains, Colorado

If a trip with a challenge is what you’re looking for, then consider North America’s newest and highest “via ferrata” at Arapahoe Basin in the Rocky Mountains. Via ferrata (“iron way” in Italian) is a method of rock climbing with ladders, fixed rungs and cables allowing non-mountainee­rs a leg up. No rock climbing experience is necessary to climb 12,900 feet to the summit on this protected climbing course with a guide.
