Classes Offered by the Cascadians

Alpine Travel
Our traditional Alpine Travel Class is currently being redesigned. In the future look for a variety of shorter classes, each focused on one aspect of outdoor recreation.

Basic Climbing
Basic Climbing Class is taught by volunteers from Central Washington Mountain Rescue. It is intended to provide the beginning mountaineer with the skills needed to climb a majority of the peaks in the Pacific Northwest. Knots and rope handling, belaying, rappelling, rock climbing, ice ax techniques, snow and glacier climbing, crevasse rescue and other skills will be taught through a combination of evening classes and outdoor field trips. Classroom sessions are held at Yakima Valley Community College.

For More information on the Basic Climbing Class contact Jeff Main.
