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!

In September 2023, after unsuccessfully battling with Indian Visa bureaucracy, Lee Harrison and Arran Turton-Phillips cut their losses and travelled to Shimshal in northern Pakistan. They sought to find new routes and first ascents in the area, but initially struggled to leave the village.
Arran joins us to discuss their (eventual) successes in the Boesam valley.
