If you don't mind a 1.5 hour drive, Kids Corner is a local favorite for a fun multipitch climb in the wi3 range. Caribou creek (where kids is located) has just about anything you could want difficulty wise. https://www.mountainproject.com/route/109775258/kids-corner I could suggest stuff closer, but what WI level are you looking for? For moderate stuff a hour or less away I would consider Beer Climbs, Eklutna Canyon, and Five fingers |

Yea, get on the ak ice climbing fb page and ask for a partner. There are people willing to do some mentoring in return for having a belay partner. If you are not sure what you can climb you should be top roping/following with someone experienced. |

Thanks guys, very much appreciated. |

If you're free during the week and want to get out let me know. |

Aaron is a good guy. Way psyched. Someone take him out and show him the local goods. I would, but I'm out of the state until March. Good luck, Aaron! |
