Formerly High Angle Adventures, we were founded by Jon Ross in 1974, and were the first guide service to operate on the Mohonk Preserve. Jon Ross has decided to retire, and HighXposure Adventures has been formed to carry on the business. It is our intention to continue with the same pride and attention to detail that was so meticulously kept by Jon. Come climb with the longest running guide service in the "Gunks".
