For those who wish to pursue climbing on a more technical level, The Mountaineers offers the Intermediate Climbing Class , and Advanced Climbing Experiences . Those with an extensive technical mountaineering background over many years on snow, ice and rock might consider applying for Intermediate Equivalency. Club Climbs are offered to graduates of the Basic Climbing Course, in order to provide a more relaxed environment than the instructional trips run in the Basic Course. Extended trips to remote locations are also organised. Usually the field trips are open to Basic Climbing graduates or equivalents, though some may be limited to Intermediate Climbing students or graduates.
Seminars held in the clubhouse are open to all.
The Crag Climbing Class is offered to those members who prefer to concentrate on rock climbing technique in readily accessible cliffs. To provide learning experiences for these classes, the Seattle Climbing Committee annually organizes several hundred Technical Climbs to destinations in the Pacific Northwest and beyond. It is the primary reference for our climbing classes. Climbing Courses are also offered through the Bellimgham , Everett , Olympia Tacoma . A course registration form is available for enrolling in any of our courses.
