I enjoyed the course tremendously. It exceeded my expectations. The quality of the course was top notch. As a result of the course I feel very comfortable with glacier travel and will be applying my new skills as much as possible.
This course is going to be something I remember for the rest of my life. The quality was superb – I felt like nothing was glossed over, we were fully prepared for our summit of Rainier, and we had a lot of fun doing it all.
