Join SheJumps, Arc'teryx Seattle + Alpine Ascents International for a women's only 6 day Mountaineering Course.
SheJumps , Arc'teryx Seattle and Alpine Ascents International are proud to offer a 6-Day Mountaineering Course. This program is designed for the beginner or intermediate climber who wishes to develop strong fundamental skills in all aspects of snow and glacier climbing as well as rock climbing. It serves as a prerequisite for many of Alpine Ascents’ intermediate-level climbs and is a stepping stone to more technically difficult mountains, including Denali. This course has served as a springboard to many climbing careers, including numerous Everest summiters, and has developed a foundation of skills for hundreds of independent climbers.
This course will be led by two of AAI's accomplished female guides and open to women only. For complete course information, please refer to AAI's Cascades 6-Day page.
