Sean has been ice and mixed climbing for 16 years and has written two books on the subject: a guide book to the Rockies and a how-to book. he has been teaching mixed climbing techniques for the past eight years.

If the coordinator cancels an event, participants get a refund (less any non-recoverable costs). Note that ACC National does not refund hut fees due to weather, delay, closures, or any other reasons.
