7/16 8-Day Course Backtracks!

  Our 8-Day Course tried to head out towards Camp Schurman via the Winthrop but the glacier was looking pretty broken and dry.  They decided to backtrack and instead work on rappelling and belaying for the rest of the day.  The team is crushing the mountaineering course curriculum!   They just have to finish navigation and crevasse rescue.  Tomorrow, they will head to Camp Schurman by going up and over St. Elmo's Pass.   Good luck team!
