Snow Climbing Course

Snow Climbing Class

No fancy trip report here, but thought I would share some photos from a snow climbing course some of us from the Idahosummits message board took part in.

Fun was had by all and several people have emailed me saying that without the course, they would not have been able to do the snow climbs they have done since.

Thanks to Greg Parker for volunteering his time to teach us!
