Got a brief call from Kevin; everyone's had a good rest day; there is a screening of the cinema classic "Old School" tonight in the big tent. Tomorrow's forecast looks good for reaching the 17,000 ft. camp. If all goes well, Wednesday is summit day.
To Sammy: I'll be thinking of you all day Wednesday, sending all the positive energy I can muster in your direction. The weather down here in Wasilla has been incredible and I hope you also are enjoying the same, although I know the mountain has its own weather system. Watch out for the forecasted thunder and lightning! Have a great ascent of the summit--can't wait to hear all about it. Love you lots! XOXO Abby
The certificate in Outdoor Skills and Leadership at the University of Alaska Southeast is an intensive nine-month humanities program that offers students the opportunity to better understand their relation to the natural world and to develop skills and characteristics that are essential to success as an individual, a group member, and a leader in outdoor and adventure settings. The program incorporates outdoor risk management, leadership skills, specific outdoor activity skills, and academic work. The combination of outdoor and academic courses is designed to develop not only knowledge but also personal traits such as self-reliance and good judgment. Students working to become outdoor professionals, wanting to achieve more general goals related to personal development and leadership, or wanting to better understand the natural world will benefit from the program.
