Two groups visited the B uga­ boos: one did a few standard climbs, and the other climbed the inside walls of their tent while attem p tin g to w ait out 12 days of m iserable w eather. Club m em bers also clim bed in E urope, Alaska, and South America. In the spring and fall, ab o u t 20 beginners were given rock clim bing instruction, and m any p articipated in trips to the Shawangunks and New H am pshire. Ice clim bing in H u n tin gton’s Ravine and the trad itio n al traverse of the Presidentials occupied the winter. The club journal will be published this spring. ADRIAN JU N COSA, President
