Hello Summitposters,
Does anyone have experience with The Mini Mountain Camp Course taught through The Sierra Mountain Center?
Basically I've been wanting to learn more technical aspects of peak bagging, i.e. rope work, ice axe and crampon technique. The goal is to be able to three season climb in the sierras, bag all of California's Fourteeners. At this point, I'm a competent hiker, backpacker, and scrambler, with minimal gym climbing, rappelling and bouldering experience.

Will this class cut the mustard for 3 season Sierra mountaineering? Do you have other course suggestions?
Regards,
David
