Chicago Mountaineering Club. The past year saw still another increase in the club’s membership. We are becoming hard pressed to provide adequate leadership to accommodate the large influx of beginners. In the absence of a club-sponsored mountain outing this year, our members were independently active climbing in Baffin Island, the Cascades, the French Military range in Canada, and Mexico. Pat Armstrong soloed Mexico’s four highest peaks: Citlaltépetl, Popocatépetl, Ixtaccíhuatl, and Zinantécatl; and has a splendid program as a result. The club continues to add its support to the various conservation issues it feels need assistance from climbing organizations. Our 1975 outing will be in the Sawtooths of Idaho.
