SUMMARY:Register now for women’s Intro to Mountaineering overnight trip
LOCATION:Outdoor Recreation Center, Pullman, WA 99163
DESCRIPTION:Whether you are hoping to tackle a Northwest volcano this summer or add to your repertoire of winter skills, this local trip provides an educational opportunity to develop basic mountaineering skills. \n\nIn this introductory overnight course, participants will learn basic snow travel techniques, including: kicking steps, rest step, self-belay with ice axe, self-arrest with ice axe, and sitting glissade. This course will not cover glacier travel or crevasse rescue (see our Crevasse Rescue Skills Clinic).\n\nTrip rating is level 2. No experience necessary, good physical conditioning necessary. Beginners and experienced individuals who would like to brush up on skills are encouraged to attend.\n\nThere will be a pre-trip meeting on March 3 from 6-8 p.m. at the Outdoor Recreation Center. At this meeting you will meet your fellow trip participants and trip leaders, see the trip itinerary, and you will have the opportunity to check out group gear and camping equipment.\n\nTrip cost includes: group gear, camping equipment, skill instruction, transportation, mountaineering boots, crampons, ice axe, and helmet. Participants need to provide their own hat, gloves, and other clothing. Plan to be in the snow all day and overnight. Dress in synthetic layers and be prepared for a damp, cold environment. No cotton clothing please. Water resistant (or waterproof) outerwear required.\n\nIf you need to cancel, please email orc@wsu.edu.\n\nWomen in Recreation Month empowers women to step outside their comfort zone by trying new recreational endeavors while celebrating strength and community.\n\nThe month is organized with special events and programs through the month. Gain new experiences and celebrate the community created by Women in Recreation Month. Whether you play, lift, move, or rock, join us this month!\n\nTo learn more about this event and to view all others, visit the UREC website.
