I want to let everyone know that for the 2010-2011 snow season we will have an additional sponsor, American Alpine Institute (AAI), based in Bellingham, WA.
From the
American Alpine Institute web site
:
"The American Alpine Institute was founded in 1975 and since then has been dedicated to helping climbers raise their skills, protect the environments in which they climb, develop good judgment, and safely gain access to the great mountains of the world. Though the Institute is especially well known for its advanced training and expeditions, its international reputation is based on its dedication to teaching (at all skill levels from beginners’ to masters’ levels), its high level of customer service, the outstanding skills of its staff, and its public service in the areas of environmental protection and public lands policy."
The
AAI sponsor thread
in the Shop for Gear board has more information about AAI's programs and expeditions, and links to useful pages on its web site.
AAI joins our four returning sponsors: Second Ascent, Pro Guiding Service, Feathered Friends, and Marmot Mountain Works. Thank you to all for helping keep TAY running smoothly!
