GMB Cadets from SUNY Plattsburgh open the Spring semester with Basic Mountaineering

  The State University of New York at Plattsburgh is a partner school of the University of Vermont. On, January 30, 2010, twenty SUNY Plattsburgh cadets attended the basic mountaineering event. The lab also served as a welcoming event for cadets entering the program this semester. Cadets received two hours of training that certified them to use the rock climbing wall. Skills learned will be utilized in the future for squad PT and leadership labs. New cadets from the SUNY Plattsburgh branch campus were introduced and integrated into the Cardinal platoon. MS IV's (senior cadets) stepped up and did a great job helping out the new cadets.
