About

Couldn't make the winter safety lectures in January? Still want to get outside with the MITOC community over the many remaining weeks of winter? Then join us for this year's winter safety make-up lectures!

Where, when and what?

This lecture will take place on campus in room 1-190 from 10:30am to 12pm on Saturday the 17th.

In order to participate with MITOC during winter conditions (which is often well into spring for the high mountains), you must have attended a delivery of the winter safety lectures this year. The "trip" will be broken into 2 parts: lecture and then a short quiz.

Topics covered

  • MITOC policies
  • Clothing
  • Basic gear
  • Hiking
  • Traction
  • Gear rentals
  • Weather
  • and more!
