Previous experience with crampons, self-arrest, and basic glacier travel is reccomended. Guides will refine steep snow and ice climbing skills. Be prepared for a couple hundred foot section of 50 degree snow depending on the conditions. Reach out about a snow training day the day before if you haven't used crampons before.

Altitude
Above 11,000 feet, altitude effects can occur. A gradual approach and proper hydration help ensure a strong summit day. Normally, climbers will feel the altitude for the last 1000 feet to the summit or so but altitude sickness rarely occurs.
