TBD.

This is a strenuous climb with spectacular alpine views. Depending on the conditions and group feel, we will climb either Clark Mt., Luahna Peak, or (if we're feeling spicy) both in 1 day.

Again, this is a strenuous hike: great conditioning is a MUST, and you MUST have hiked or climbed with me PRIOR to this trip. I will be running 2-3 conditioners up Mailbox Peak in April/May/June for climbers who have not been on a climb with me.

Preference to Tacoma BAC students  until June 1st.
