It was great to be properly taught in the fundamentals. I feel that I will be much more prepared for moderate objectives on my own and, perhaps more importantly, be a better, more informed team member on more advanced guided expeditions.
Excellent course with fantastic guides. As a novice, this course provided me with a lot of useful information and training that will help me summit Mt. Aconcagua with Alpine Ascents in December.
