Njolk 01/06/22 3:42:57 PM #16:	PrsdntHeidecker posted... I still get confused on what qualifies as alpine climbing compared to rock. From what I can tell, alpine is all about getting to the summit of a high altitude climb with all your gear packed on you. So, if you can avoid any fifth class climbing you hike or scramble around it. Is that accurate? Alpine climbing is like multi pitch to reach the summit of a peak. Some pitches might be class 3, some 5.10 Alpinism is like minimalist mountaineering, with fewer camps and more basic gear --- Until you give up the idea that happiness is somewhere else, it will never be where you are <cite>Njolk posted [p:961526697] in Does anyon...
