Crested Outdoors: Where Ordinary People Become Andean Adventurers

How This Works
You’re not buying a tour. You’re investing in your own capability. 

Bringing your family?

Kids as young as 10 have summited with us: Secret? We:

  • Turn scree slopes into treasures hunts
  • Replace “are we there yet?” with “let’s find the next viewpoint!”

 

New to mountains?

Good. We specialize in turning “I can’t” into “Holy shit, I did it!” through:

  • Gear clinics 
  • Altitude training that won’t kill your vacation

 

Already climbing?

We’ll hurt you (safely). Think: 

  • Glacier traverses o Tolima that’ll test your technique 
  • Multi-day traverses in los Nevados where condors judge your life choices

 

ABOUT US

At Crested Outdoors, we believe anyone can climb mountains – with the right preparation and guidance. We don’t just take you to the peaks; we equip you with the skills, training, and confidence to make your Andean adventure unforgettable.

 

Crested Outdoors provides end-to-end mountain ascent support: professional gear selection, customized training, and adaptive climbing techniques to safely achieve your high-altitude goals in the Andes 

Why Our Guides Make the Difference

 

WFR Certified (Wilderness First Responder) – meaning they can stitch you up mid-slope if needed

ACGME Accredited – (Colombia’s toughest guiding standard) – no YouTube-taught cowboys here

Disaster Whisperers – trained to turn “Oh shit” moments into “Good story later” ones

No Cookie-Cutter Adventures
We’ve guided:
• 65-year-old grandmothers to Santa Isabel’s summit (with celebratory aguardiente at basecamp)

“Wow. Colombia is amazing. While we had some wild weather, this was one of the most enjoyable five days of our entire trip.  I’m not sure what you have in your head when you think of Colombia, but for me, it sure wasn’t this. I highly recommend a visit”.

“If you’re heading to Salento during your travels of Colombia and thinking about going to see the wax palms in Cocora Valley, I would highly recommend not stopping there”.
