Basic Glacier Climb - Silver Star Mountain/Silver Star Glacier

TBD, but very early. Most likely will require car camping at the parking lot or nearby.

This will be one day push for Sliver Star Mountain. Please expect a very long day (14+ hours) with 5000+ elevation gain.

Please don't  request leader permission before climb opening date.  When requesting leader permission, please include the recent history of trips/conditioners with more than 4000ft of gain, preferably with overnight pack.

Foothills Basic students - since the climb is happening before your final exam, you can request permission to join anytime after Snow 1 field trip. However, if you are significantly struggling with your crevasse rescue skills by the trip comes, I may ask you to drop from the roster.

Foothills Basic course volunteers - at least one spot on this climb is dedicated for someone who helped run Basic course this year. If I get multiple requests, I will make a decision based on your involvement in running the course.
