Learn Top Rope Anchor Building With a Private Climb

I always have a great experience with IMCS and most recently had an amazing amazing day summiting Mt Washington, with Mickey as my guide. It was my first time at Washington in any season + my first winter ascent of a >4k footer + my first time mountaineering again after an ACL reconstruction. Mickey was phenomenal. Not only was he super fun to talk to, but he checked in often on how my knee/stamina was feeling and he was very encouraging throughout the day; everything felt well catered to my experience and comfort level. The route (Lions head winter route) was somewhat technical given recent weather; several groups turned around or seemed unprepared, but thanks to Mickey’s skill/problem solving, I had an easygoing of a time as possible and I felt more than prepared (particularly gear-wise). The day was also well tailored towards my goals (educational/returning to mountaineering) with Mickey sharing his experiences and answering my many many questions. I left feeling that he was incredibly qualified and knowledgeable. Generally a perfect day (basically no wind at the summit!); I couldn’t have asked for a better reintroduction to mountaineering and wouldn’t hesitate to have him guide me again!!
