It is time to plan for Summer Climbs 2017.
This thread is a starting point for organizing the adventures for the new-grads from the 2017 class. If you wish to organize a climb, please include details such as:
– Who is the organizer
– Destination
– Dates (may be flexible)
– Intensity (“tempo-de-sloth” vs. “tempo-de-Begasse”)
– how many people (new-grads and experienced)
– any special notes.The trips can be anything from cragging in the evening, a simple day climb, to a multi-night adventure.

The focus of the Summer Climbs program is to give the Basic Climbing Class graduates more opportunities to hone their skills.

June 8, 2017 at 9:52 pm #7531KeymasterFor those who haven’t been there yet, Camp Muir, Mount Rainier, June 24th. A recommended preview before your summit attempt via DC route. We will carry full-gear list packs. Trip will include a stop at the pinnacle of Anvil Rock for some dramatic views.
This is a 15-hour Seattle-to-Seattle day trip. I plan to be on the road by about 5am. Start hiking about 8am. Be back at the car about 5pm and home by 8pm.
