Denali Prep Seminar On Rainier A Huge Success!

March 7, 2019

: Perfect winter seminar conditions at Camp Muir (Nicole Sims)

: Crevasse rescue training in a storm (Nicole Sims)

IMG Guides, Rikki Dunn & Nicole Sims, set the bar high with how well they ran the second Denali Prep Seminar of the season. Their first couple of days on the mountain found them under sunny skies, but weather moved in as soon as they arrived at Camp Muir. This gave them the opportunity to evaluate conditions, consider the forecast, and determine the best strategy for training in inclement weather.

The storm provided the team with the perfect conditions for practicing whiteout navigation skills, crevasse rescue techniques, and avalanche hazard evaluation. The team descended back to IMG HQ today happy, healthy, and full of enthusiasm! Well done!

We still have 1 spot available on both our March 16th & March 30th seminars. Sign up today!
