If you find it easier to take a class over a long weekend or missed the most recent Alpine Scrambling class deadline -- Compressed Alpine Scrambling Course (CASC) is for you, differing only from the regular Alpine Scrambling class by the intensity of the instructional experience. Learn how to travel off-trail and safely across rock and snow filled terrain and use an ice ax to reach some of the great peaks in the area. After an initial web cast lecture and a long-weekend of field instruction the program culminates with the regular Seattle Alpine Scrambling class Experience Field Trip in June.
The course will begin at the Seattle Mountaineer Program center on Friday, May 13, 2016 from 8:00 AM to 2:30 PM. The course will then move to the Stevens Pass Mountaineers Lodge on Friday night through Sunday afternoon, May 15, 2016. After the class students are required to meet all other requirements to successfully graduate the program. Due to the challenges of ASI an application is required and students are expected to demonstrate excellent physical conditioning – such as being able to achieve 2,000 feet in elevation gain in a reasonable time with a pack in each of two consecutive days as well as other strenuous physical activities during the field trips. One test is hiking Mt. Si in 2.5 hours or less with a 30 lb pack. There is an additional charge for the overnight stay and meals at the Stevens Lodge. Due to the timing of this course, students will either have to sign up for Wilderness Navigation early in the season or participate at a special Navigational event designed especially for students taking CASC or Intense Basic Climbing Course. Date TBD.
