LEARN HOW YOU CAN VOLUNTEER
How to become an Instructor
Teaching classes is a great way to share your experience, stay sharp, meet other climbers and contribute to safe climbing and climbing environmental ethics. Basic Climbing Course (BCC) graduates or those with BCC equivelency need to take the January Instructor Review (IR) clinic (date varies each year) to become Everett BCC Instructors. Attending IR every other three years is required in order to keep the Instructor status.

Everett Peak Pin
The Everett Mountaineers have had a peak award system for many decades. The Mountaineers Peak Pin set has the Everett group in their list
Priority climbs
Due to the popularity of certain climbs, each Branch will be given a priority date which only that Branch can post up to the expiration date. This will help manage crowding on routes and allow fair access to popular climbs.

Climbing Committee
The Everett Climbing Committee is committed to building and fostering a representative climbing community that reflects the spaces in which we live and recreate. We acknowledge the harms of inequity in outdoor recreation for people of color, women, LGBTQ people and other marginalized communities. We encourage people from all backgrounds and identities to join our community and will continue to challenge ourselves to learn, grow, and act justly.
We also welcome your help on our committee and would love to see you give back to your branch! The Climbing Committee meets regularly every three months. For more information, email the committee chair, Rodica Manole, at rodi.man@gmail.com.
Service Award
The Ken Nelson Memorial Climbing Award recognizes outstanding climb leadership and volunteer service to the Everett Mountaineers Climbing Programs and its community.
