Show up to Seward on a clear day and this peak just begs to be climbed! The southwest face is a great snow climb with 2 short rock crux, depending on conditions. This route follows a less obvious weakness/couloir from the glacier up to a snow slope, which leads to the upper snow slope. Gain the ridge and scramble up some decent rock for the area. A few variations exist to the summit. Descent: Down climb route w/ 1 or 2 rappels.

Southwest Face

Splitter Choss

If mud caked holds and loose rock are your thing, look no further. A serious sense of adventure is needed for this one...and a helmet.  This route follows a huge left facing corner system on the shoulder of Mount Alice. Climb a low angle corner, cleaning holds along your way. Follow the aesthetic corner to a weakness where you can traverse left into a gully. Be aware to not knock loose rock onto your belayer! Climb the gully trending right toward the top.  Continue up the gully occasionally kicking steps in mud to the large left facing corner above. Climb the massive corner to the top and exit left to avoid loose blocks. Belay on the top of the ridge. Descent: Hike off to the right and down the hikers trail.

Mount Alice has a hikers summit and a summit proper which most people gain with ropes.  It is the tallest peak in the area and most well known.
