AMS custom climbing trip led by Colby Coombs with long-time AMS friend Mark Stier
returned this weekend after a 10-day trip to the wilderness for some fun 5.7 rock climbing and hiking. After rendezvousing in Fairbanks, heading to Coldfoot, they then flew in a bush plane to a remote and beautiful area. Alaska is experiencing warmer than normal temperatures which made for pleasant climbing in August. Colby and Mark climbed Mt. Parabola first followed by Mt. Ariel.
