These are not climbs to check of boxes on your graduation requirements. You really should know about these peaks and what they involve. We are doing 3 peaks:
Easy Mox: I prefer someone with at least one true intermediate alpine rock climber under your belt. A good one to do first is Forbidden.
Custer: Extreme choss. Please have good skills on loose terrain. This is a good climb for very experienced scramblers. We will rope up for one pitch.
Rahm: a standard class 3 scramble
