This clinic requires an application! The application period will close on April 15, 2026. 
This clinic is designed to provide climbing growth and mentorship for Mountaineers volunteers, beyond what typical Mountaineers courses can provide. Mentors will be from the Mountaineers Alpine Ambassador program which encompasses all Mountaineers Branches. 
  • Day one will be focused on practicing different crack techniques on top rope in a single pitch setting. We will aim to provide instruction on as many different sizes of cracks as possible. 
  • Day 2 will either be more crack technique practice or potentially other objectives as dictated by the group.
  • Saturday dinner will be potluck style at the campground.  
Applicant Requirements 
Applicants must have taken the Intermediate Rock program offered by their branch or have equivalent experience and be active volunteers for their branch's climbing programs. Applicants should be leading between 5.6 and 5.8 and looking to improve their crack technique. For those leading 5.9 and above, we suggest looking into joining the Ambassadors on a gateway trip. 

Alpine Ambassadors is a community of advanced climbers in The Mountaineers, who provide climbing growth and mentorship for top Mountaineers climbing volunteers, often beyond what typical Mountaineers courses offer. Climbing mentorship is provided by the team of Alpine Ambassadors who are coordinating the trip. An application is required to participate in trips hosted by the Alpine Ambassadors.

We will meet in Tieton on Saturday morning. Exact date and time will be communicated to participants.
