If you have a Sierra Club membership that is active through Mar 31, 2026, you will receive information by the 3rd class on how to receive a $15 discount.
If you cancel after registering, a cancellation fee of $100 will be deducted from your payment.
A refund is only available when cancelling before the second class, except for medical reasons. When cancelling for medical reasons with doctor’s note, a refund is only available up to Jan 30, 2026; you must return all course materials (book, compass, etc) to receive the refund.
You will not be able to sign up for Car Camp until you complete your day hike.
You may participate in Wilderness Basics Course a maximum time of 2 times within a 5 year period.
Snow camp will be 1 or 2 nights in the field; Mammoth is currently planned as an option, however if weather or other reasons prevent this, all snow camp trips will occur in SoCal mountains.
In the event of a storm during snow camp, students may be required to share a tent for safety reasons.
Please review the class schedule and make sure you can attend the main, alternate, or make-up dates; there are no other dates besides those listed in the schedule.
There is no waitlist; after registration closes, the class is full.
