of all participants are suitable for the outing.

Codes:

* You must have basic rock climbing skills such as belaying.

** You must be a member to take the training courses.

*** The women-coordinated outings are designed to meet the goals of female members, and male members are always welcome.

#  The outing includes a peak listed on the LVMC 50 peaks list.
