Six-Day Mountaineering Course, April 28, Launch

AMS lead guide Wes Bunch and assistant Taylor Bracher launched today as the first course of the 2019 season today, on what is a bluebird day! They are a fun crew compromised of 4 Alaskans and are heading into the Eldridge Glacier, a real treat for sure.

After a full day of gear checking, lunch at AMS, and crevasse rescue practice, the team loads the van to head to the air taxi.
Beautiful day to fly!
