Calling All Climbers!

The BOEALPS Intermediate Climbing Class (ICC) is an exceptional opportunity for those who want to advance their basic climbing abilities and who have a desire to gain the skill and experience necessary to climb some of the more technical and remote climbs in the Cascades and the Olympics. The Intermediate Course builds on the fundamentals learned in the BOEALPS Basic Climbing Class (BCC) and helps students take their climbing to the next level--focusing on more advanced rock climbing and mountain safety skills. Throughout the course, students are encouraged to practice decision making and to develop leadership skills in the alpine environment.

Class runs from mid-March to the end of August with a Monday night classroom session and a weekend outing about every two weeks. The first class is Monday, March 22, 2010 at 6:30 PM in Building 2-22. Tuition cost is $450 for members of BoeAlps or $490 for non-members.

Getting started is easy. Just read the class description, and then fill out the appropriate form and mail it in. Applications must be received by Thursday, March 4th, 2010, and acceptance into the class will be confirmed no later than March 9th, 2010.
