Hi Folks, This is Victor and Devin checking in with the 13 Day Course. We started on the 18th with some rope work, knots, rappelling and climbing at Mt Erie. Mt Erie provides great views of the Pudget Sound and islands. Yesterday we hiked to our base camp on Mt Shuksan at 6,200’ at the toe of the Sulphide Glacier. Today we covered snow school, self arrest, and snow anchors.
Cheers, Victor
