In mountaineering, a First Ascent is the first successful, documented climb to the summit of a mountain — the moment someone goes where no one has gone before and makes it to the top.

​It sounds triumphant. And it is. But it's also lonely. Confusing. Scary.

There's no map, no one ahead of you to follow, and no guarantee the path you're forging is the right one.

​Sound familiar?

​First Ascent is for the women who are already out there going first. Building something before anyone else believes in it.

​This retreat is their chance to step away from the noise, get around women who actually get it, gain clarity on where they're headed, and come back down the mountain with a plan.

​Being a First Ascent guest means:

  • ​Registration before Camp Collective is open to the public

  • ​A special rate — the lowest this retreat will be offered. The final cost and payment plans will be shared in July.

  • Priority room selection at Vanderkamp

  • ​An invitation to complete our First Ascent intake form and join a collaborative planning call with our team before we finalize the itinerary.

  • ​the experience of being part of something before it's widely announced

members of the collective have the opportunity to register as a first ascent guest. join the collective for access.

Vanderkamp was founded in the belief that immersing ourselves within the natural world can have a transformative impact on personal and professional growth.
