Climb conditioner for 2025 Olympia Basic Alpine Climbing (BAC) Course. Request leader's permission before registering.
This is a mentored lead for Martin Fisher. Please reach out to him with questions and admittance to the trip (martin.fisher84@gmail.com).
All Olympia BAC students must successfully complete a climb conditioner prior to March 23, 2025 (Field Trip 3). Successful completion of this trip counts toward the climb conditioner requirement. You must carry a pack that's 20 percent of your body weight or 35 pounds (whichever is heavier) and reach the summit in 2.5 hours to successfully complete this climb conditioner.
Please check your pack weight at home before leaving, do not estimate. Bring a few extra water bottles or heavy objects to supplement the weight if necessary, we will check our packs in the parking lot before leaving.
We'll meet at 6:00am at the West Olympia Haggens on the side that faces McDonalds.
