THE INCREDIBLE HULK - PHOTO ESSAY BY CLAYTON HERRMANN
Nestled in the Sierra Nevada mountain range, “The Incredible
Hulk” towers over a floor of scree like a giant—and not the
friendly kind. A steep 1,200-foot wall with long granite ridges
stacked with striking spires culminates to its 11,300-foot
summit, making a true marvel for climbers.
Let your eyes wander through our latest photo essay from
photographer Brendan Davis about their multi-day backpacking
adventure in the Glacier Peak Wilderness in Washington.
The AMERICAN MOUNTAIN GUIDES
ASSOCIATION (AMGA) IS
a leader in education, standards, and advocacy for professional guides and climbing instructors. It is the American representative to the International Federation of Mountain Guides (IFMGA) and offers training, certification, and advocacy to its members.
We work with the AMGA by providing assistance, outreach, and resource sharing for scholarships and affinity spaces. Our partnership does not only directly support the advancement of guides and instructors, together, we double our efforts in advocating for and elevating our professional community in the U.S.
This past year has threatened crucial organizations and livelihoods that all of us in the outdoor community rely on. If we want to keep enjoying the places we love, we have to do our part to give a little extra to those that make those experiences possible.
In partnership with the American Mountain Guides Association, six climbers participated in a LGBTQIA2S+ Single Pitch Instructor Course in Joshua Tree National Park.
