Instructor “Training” – Mt. Huntington

Rigging for Rescue instructors Mike Gibbs and Kevin Koprek took some time following their recent contract seminar with Denali National Park and the 212th RQS to climb the much revered Mt. Huntington.  Gibbs and Koprek chose the Colton/Leach route, a neighbor to the much more often climbed West Face Couloir.  This Alaska Grade 6 route was established by British climbers Nick Colton and Timothy Leach in 1981.
