The Alaska Mountaineers

The Alaska Mountaineers is a Meetup Group for people actively engaged in Mountaineering and related activities. It was established by The Mountaineering Club of Alaska (MCA) to provide an effective means for Mountaineers to communicate with each other to pursue outdoor activities of mutual interest. Members post events and other Members will respond if interested.

Alaska Mountaineers' events are not supervised or monitored in any way and members accept full responsibility for themselves

The Mountaineering Club of Alaska also has club sanctioned trips available at its website mtnclubak.org
