What the five days look like
Mountain objectives are set each morning by Merrick based on conditions and the group. The clinical arc stays constant; the terrain doesn't.
Day 1
Establish psychological safety, mountain safety, group expectations and baseline.
Day 2
Encounter manageable challenge and recognize personal responses to stress.
Day 3
Experience meaningful challenge within appropriate clinical and mountain boundaries.
Day 4
Intentionally practice new responses and resiliency skills during a real experience.
Day 5
Reflect, identify transferable lessons and create a plan for bringing those skills home.
