What kind of experience do I need to participate in a climb of the Kautz Glacier?
This route is for those climbers who performed well on the Emmons Glacier Climb or have successfully completed the 8-Day Emmons Glacier Course or the 6-Day North Cascades Mountaineering Course or equivalent training) This is an extremely rigorous four days and being in excellent physical condition is mandatory. One day of skills review is included in the climb. Please note, the guide retains the right, at any point, to determine whether a climber is sufficiently fit to continue the climb.
