Foothills Scrambling Committee

Alpine Scrambling Course

The Foothills Alpine Scramble Course, offered each spring, teaches students safe off-trail travel in both snow and rock, including how to use an ice axe to self-arrest, how to walk in crampons, and key rock scrambling techniques - allowing you to safely reach the majority of the peaks in the Cascades. The small class size and focused time frame provide a great learning environment ideal for those who can’t commit multiple weekends to learning.
