This is a conditioning hike for Seattle Alpine Scrambling Course (A) Group students.
Leader permission is approved for all (A) Group students, no need to ask.
We will use this time to get to know fellow scramblers, test new gear, discuss the course, and get ready for a summer peakbagging!
Required Equipment
This is not a scramble, so helmets, ice axes and harnesses are not required however for conditioning you should carry all the gear you will be taking on a scramble trip. This includes helmet, ice axe and hasty harness.
Everything else you would bring on a regular scramble course is required including the 10 essentials, rain gear and extra clothes.
This is a great time to test out mountaineering boots you are planning to use during the scramble course for fit and comfort. If you do not have those boots yet sturdy hiking boots will suffice for now.
