A variety of outings are offered by the club, throughout the year, from winter snowshoe
and cross-country ski trips to a wide range of climbs with varying difficulty in
the spring, summer, and fall. Seminars on rock climbing, avalanche awareness, first
aid, and more, are organized throughout the year. Club climbs are advertised and
led by club members. They rarely exceed a moderate level of difficulty and basic
climbing course graduates are encouraged to sign up.
For a calendar of current and upcoming events please see this month's edition of
the Echo.
General Meetings
We hold a general meeting on the first Thursday of each month. Social time is
between 6:30 - 7:00 PM with the actual meeting starting at 7:00 P.M. The GM is
located in the 2-22 Blding (Boeing Cafeteria) on East Marginal Way, Seattle.
The purpose of the general meeting is to keep members informed of club activities.
It also provides a forum for the exchange of ideas on an interesting subject --
climbing! We will inform you of the actions taken or being considered by the
elected officers of the club.
All actions requiring a vote of the membership will be considered at the general meeting.
The first 30 minutes of the meeting, is for socializing (food and drinks provided!).
After the short business meeting beginning at 7:00 P.M., we will provide activities
of an informative, entertaining, or social nature. We will have special guest
speakers through the year who will show slides on various outdoor activities. Guest
speakers will include well-known climbers, authors, photographers, etc.
