Basic Mountaineering Course

I have been planning to get the Basic Mountaineering Course (BMC from now on) for a couple of years, but could not do it because of obligations. Thanks to the intense burn out at the previous job I applied for the BMC in December of 2023 and I got the confirmation on Feb 2024.

Post that all of my time was solely focused on preparing for the BMC. I managed to hurt my knee in Jan 2024 and I had to spend a lot of time under physiotherapy to get the knee under control. For my training I was not able to run under strict instructions of the physiotherapist, thus most of my training focused on upper body strength and flexibility.

I will be writing a series of detailed reports on the BMC experience. These have been divided into 4 parts

• Intro And Rock-Craft
• Hike To Basecamp
• Ice-Craft And Height Gain
• Ending And Graduation

Most of these are not written yet. I'm just publishing the scaffolding
