Alpine Scramble - The Brothers/South Couloir

TBD in email approximately one week prior to trip. 

Leader is still finalizing the posting. Stay tuned for more details to come.

Here is a trip report for your reference: Basic Alpine Climb - The Brothers/South Couloir — The Mountaineers

Please request leader permission to participate. This route requires navigation skills and good physical conditioning.  The Brothers is a Smoots peak with exposure and loose material. You should be comfortable with exposed rock scrambles and potentially steep snow travel. This is often posted as a Basic Alpine Climb, though everything I've read indicates it is a scramble. 

PLEASE CLICK ON [MORE+] AND READ THOROUGHLY BEFORE REQUESTING LEADER PERMISSION.

• Requests before registration date are not guaranteed a response, and any sign-ups without prior leader permission will be canceled.
• Because of exposure and loose material, this is not a good scramble for current scramble/basic students unless you have experience in these conditions. You should have completed at least one S5, T5 scramble (preferably two), and basic rock/basic alpine climbs count too. Be sure to share with me S5 & T5 rock scrambles and/or basic rock climbs you have done in the past.
• When requesting permission, let me know your level of recent conditioning, past backcountry camping experience. Please also include your experience traveling on steep snow, and exposed rock scrambling terrain.
