About MMA

Montana Mountaineering Association is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization with a mission to promote the values of rock climbing, mountaineering, and backcountry travel.

MMA fulfills its mission by offering a variety of instructional and experiential programs including guided trips and educational courses focused on alpine endeavors. The offerings span a wide array of rock, ice and snow activities that range from competitively priced high-end guided days to subsidized or free programs targeting lower income populations, young adults and minority groups. Proceeds from the revenue-generating activities help subsidize these other offerings.

This operational model is based on our belief that the mountains that we love and cherish have transformational powers that benefit individuals and society alike. With our wide range of offerings, we strive to lower the entry and participation barriers that might inhibit practitioners from getting or sustaining quality mentorship, instruction, education or guidance to explore the mountains safely and responsibly. We aim to support our community with these services regardless of economic background, previous experience, gender, age, sexual orientation, race or ethnicity.

All our programs are taught and run by professional and experienced staff. We strive to create working conditions that allow us to hire and retain the most qualified and knowledgeable guides and educators.

Trip: Lindsay Fixmer

Guide: Lindsay F.

Last minute reach out to Lindsay for some guided multi pitch climbing and she even accommodated the area since I traveled with a group. Always professional and such an amazing climber. So glad this climb worked out for our schedules. Always great memories in the canyon and truly an inspiration to keep on learning my ice skills. Thanks again Lindsay for an EPIC intro to multi pitch ice climbing….I am hooked!
