We'll meet at 6:30 pm in Issaquah Highlands to practice crevasse rescue. We'll wrap up before sunset.
Please be on time. We'll have instructors run through a scenario first, and then we'll break up into small groups to practice. We'll be outside, practicing on a grassy slope, so wear appropriate clothing and footwear.
Instructors--reach out to me, and I can add you and increase the size of the trip.
Required Equipment
All the gear you need for crevasse rescue, plus ice ax, helmet, backpack, and crampons. If you have a sit pad or a picket, bring that, too.
