Insure-4-less do cover mountaineering but it is a seperate policy. i used them when i went canada earlier this year. i was only covered to 3000 m but spoke tot hem about other stuff for future reference and everything seemed negotiable except (from memory) no new routes and no solo climbing. they were very friendly and efficient in organising the insurance and providing clear info as to what was and wasnt covered. send them an email with what you are doing and they will send you a quote (if they are willing to cover your particular trip). they were the cheapest for me. |
