Glacier Scrambling Planning Checklist

A free planning checklist designed to help you evaluate scrambling objectives, prepare your equipment and make better decisions before leaving the maintained trail.

Full product description:

Scrambling in Glacier can take you beyond the maintained trail and into extraordinary mountain country—but no ropes does not mean no risk.

The Glacier Scrambling Planning Checklist was created to help you think through the route, conditions, equipment and decisions that should be considered before committing to an objective.

Inside the checklist, you’ll find practical guidance to help you:

• Evaluate the route, exposure and current conditions

• Consider your available time and turnaround point

• Build a clear plan with the members of your party

• Prepare the equipment required by the route and conditions

• Complete a final check before leaving the maintained trail

• Decide when to continue, pause and reassess, or turn around

This checklist draws on more than 40 years of exploring and climbing throughout Glacier National Park.

Scrambling involves real hazards. This resource supports planning and decision-making, but it does not replace appropriate experience, judgment, training or current information about park conditions.
