Hey Ravisurdhar,
Were you able to acquire a different date for their advanced mountaineering course?
A follow up on all that IWLS/ AMS jazz. I did end up getting a scholarship with IWLS and did a 24 day guiding trip with them. Interesting enough, I now work for IWLS and AMG in Skagway. It's a good company and the work is bad ass! But as I'm sure you all may be aware, the long trips are based more upon seniority. Most first year guides end up working all summer as a climbing instructor and zip-line guides. The long trips are truely amazing though. Great place to to take courses and help your guiding career along as well as learn both soft and hard skills fro extended trips in the mountains.
