I'm trying out a new vetting system in which I will only take people on my alpine climbs who have participated in at least one activity with me or other leaders of the trip. I post many conditioning hikes and events that are free for everyone to join (no membership or badge is required). Please try to join a trip with one of the leaders before applying for participation. We'll see how it goes this season :)
