Leader's notes

Preference given to Basic Glacier Travel Students needing a climb from 2021 or strong 2022 BGT students. Climbers, please don't email leader prior to registration. Leaders may request a spot prior. Must be in excellent physical condition, fully vaccinated and able to help with pre-trip planning and risk/route assessment along the way in a collaborative team effort. Car-camp required pre-climb to ensure max rest for summit day! We may do the climb as a 1-day push on Friday, meaning sleeping at the TH on Thursday night, depends on the weather. Must be willing to change destinations or cancel due to weather/conditions.
