Join Steve Yi on March 19 at the Mountaineers Clubhouse in Goodman A, where he’ll share photos and video of his experiences climbing three classic routes in the Enchantments. This is a great opportunity for intermediate climbers to learn how to take on harder alpine rock challenges farther in the backcountry.
Steve will discuss strategies and techniques for climbing these routes, including simul-climbing, gear selection, and planning - as well as stories from these memorable trips.
