Nols mountaineering courses offer the aspiring mountaineer a combination of skills, decision-making and leadership experience, as well as conservation philosophy. This tradition has value for those who do not have the opportunity to benefit from NOLS expeditions and it is hoped that some of this "knowledge" is conveyed here in a brief text that can be carried into the mountains.
