The AMP Ice Progression Group program is designed to help participants learn and practice ice climbing skill development to enable their progression throughout the ice season, in order to perfect their movement and other skills required to confidently move from being a skilled follower to leading single and multi pitch ice climbs in the winter season (and to continue into snow and ice in the alpine in spring and summer seasons). Learning goals for the program will also include venue selection and route planning, hazard identification, assessment and mitigation, and strategies for maintaining high safety margins in winter conditions. Participants should be committed to attending the scheduled sessions, and to practicing their skills independently between instructional weeks.
Participants should have some background in ice or rock climbing, comfort leading single or multi-pitch rock would be beneficial.
This program will be instructed by Ethan Woodside.

Cancellation Policy If a participant is unable to attend a paid course or trip, there will be no refund unless the participant finds a suitable replacement that is acceptable to the trip coordinator. Acceptable waiting list candidates will have priority. It will then be the participant's responsibility to recover funds from the replacement. 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. The Rocky Mountain Section of the ACC is a not for profit club and we only charge attendees what it costs us to provide courses or trips.
