Only accepting request for Leaders. We currently have a full participant roster and healthy waitlist, so requests from potential participants are not guaranteed a response.
Climbing The Tooth with a ski approach and retreat is one adventure that's been on my radar for several seasons, waiting for the right conditions. The route needs to be melted out enough to climb, but not so much to make the ski travel difficult or dangerous.
While I've listed the date as listed April 21, the expectation is that participants will be available for the best weather window that week, April 21-25.
Students must be signed off for rock, and have done multiple recent ski tours this season. In your permission request, can you please share details of your recent fitness activities and ski touring?
Sign-ups without prior permission will be removed from consideration.
TBD over email.
