Expedition and Course Availability

Happy New Year!

We had a fine New Year's celebration in beautiful downtown Talkeetna with fireworks at the VFW (and throughout town) as well as a party at the Fairview Inn and the Teepee Lounge.
We hope your celebration was equally enjoyable.

A big bonfire with fireworks started off the evening at the V.F.W. Post 3836

We had a few more applications roll in over the holidays and more are in the pipeline. Time to make your resolution to climb with AMS in 2013!
