About
We're passionate about connecting people to the great outdoors.
At ONE AXE Pursuits, we provide recreational adventures such as zipline, ice climbing, rappelling, rock climbing, caving and mountaineering.
We believe outdoor fun is for everyone. With programs for the complete beginner to the intermediate adventurer, we offer high quality instruction for every level of participant.
Launched in 2001, ONE AXE represents Founder Frederick Schuett’s propensity for living life on the edge. On his first mountaineering adventure, he commented to his instructor that the icy slope wasn’t much of a challenge. The instructor took away one of his axes, unknowingly giving birth to ONE AXE Fred.
