American Alpine Club seeks climbers to join the 2012 International Climbers’ Meet

This message is to let you know about the 2012 International Climbers’ Meet, an event you won’t want to miss. The ICM will be held this October 8-13 in Yosemite Valley, and for $450, you’ll receive:

Transportation to and from the Fresno airport, and within Yosemite Valley
Six days and nights camping at beautiful and secluded Yellow Pines campground
Three catered meals per day
Five and a half days of climbing in spectacular Yosemite Valley
Nightly campfire for storytelling, socializing, and gerenal carousing
An opportunity to partner with other participants or experienced host climbers

Seriously. This has to be the most unique (not to mention affordable) climbing experience you could possibly have in Yosemite. While some climbing ability is necessary, participants of all abilities are welcome to apply; the goal is to host a diverse group of climbing abilities from a multitude of countries, like we did last year.

The application deadline is June 10. Download an AAC Member Application or an International Application, and send the completed forms to Carol at ckotchek@americanalpineclub.org. (You can also contact Carol with your questions.)

See you in Yosemite!
