This is a one-day climb.  Note that during the winter, climbs are often canceled or rescheduled to a different date due to avi conditions, wind, and other factors. This particular climb is especially condition-dependent, and it's quite likely we'll have to move it to catch the weather window. Please be flexible.

Email leader with a description of climbing experience.
