This event is organized under the Alpine
Mentorship Program (AMP). The goal of the AMP
program is to
develop stronger mountaineering base of trip
leaders and participants in the Alpine Club.
Since this is a mentorship event, participants
are expected to make decisions and actively
participate in trip planning. Participants
will be mentored by Brent Peters, ACMG guide.

at Hermit Meadows with potential objectives Mt

Hermit.
There will be a trip planning session
