Hi there. The Bushwhacker Climbing Club - yes we really exist - is now taking applications for the Basic Glacier Climbing Course. The club was founded in 2004 and has offered this class almost every year. We cover snow travel skills with ice axes as well as off trail navigation with map and compass. We teach crevasse rescue and attempt Mt Baker summit climb.
The course is $375. Membership, $35, is required.
Learn skills, climb mountains and most of all meet some friendly folks to share it all with.

Much appreciation to the admins for allowing us to post this here.

I heard the Mountaineers Basic Climbing Course is busting at the seams, with many on the wait list. I think they had to shrink the total count for some reason. People are spilling over into the Scrambling courses. Bet your course will be popular too!
I think they had to shrink the total count for some reason.
I counseled them (Sue Weckerly) to do that 15+ years ago when they routinely had people getting hurt and dying on climbs and class outings. The had too many people in groups with too few instructors, and many of the instructors were conscripted; teaching only because they had to to get through the intermediate course.
Back then the response I got was "With the number of people trips we do it's inevitable that people are going to get hurt and killed". That was the very moment I knew I was done with them.

quoting the original post to keep this on track - a Bushwhacker Climbing Club course.
And a quality club Bushwhackers is, too. Several good folks on this site have graduated from Bushwhackers.
