Snowshoeing Equivalency Application
Thank you for expressing your interest in getting out on the snow with The Mountaineers! To do so requires either that you successfully complete the snowshoeing course (normally held by branches in the late fall/winter so that trips can be taken while there's snow) or show that you have the equivalent skills, knowledge, and equipment that we expect of one of our Basic Snowshoeing Course graduates. This application describes and starts the process of determining course equivalency.
- Make sure you have the skills by checking out course description on the basic snowshoeing or intermediate snowshoeing badges.
- Fill out and submit this application.
- A Mountaineers representative will get in touch with you to discuss the application.
- Join The Mountaineers, if not already a member.
This application starts the necessary conversation between you and our volunteers. There may be slightly different requirements for the committees at different branches (all of which will comply with our organizational minimum standards for snowshoeing).
