This is the updated official FM 3-97.61 which contains more pages and updated information. The printed U.S. Army Mountaineering Manual is in the 8.5 x 11 inch format. The book contains 287 pages. Mountains exist in almost every country in the world and almost every war has included some type of mountain operations. This pattern will not change; therefore, soldiers will fight in mountainous terrain in future conflicts. Although mountain operations have not changed, several advancements in equipment and transportation have increased the soldiers' capabilities. The helicopter now allows access to terrain that was once unreachable or could be reached only by slow methodical climbing. Inclement weather, however, may place various restrictions on the capabilities of air assets available to a commander. The unit must then possess the necessary mountaineering skills to overcome adverse terrain to reach an objective. This field manual details techniques soldiers and leaders must know to cope with mountainous terrain. These techniques are the foundation upon which the mountaineer must build. They must be applied to the various situations encountered to include river crossings, glaciers, snow-covered mountains, ice climbing, rock climbing, and urban vertical environments. The degree to which this training is applied must be varied to conform to known enemy doctrine, tactics, and actions. This FM also discusses basic and advanced techniques to include acclimatization, illness and injury, equipment, anchors, evacuation, movement on glaciers, and training. The book is created, trusted and battle tested by the US Armed Forces. It should be owned by every soldier and be part of every bug-out bag and vehicle, and used by preppers, hunters, climbers, campers, outdoorspeople, hikers and anyone looking to survive natural or man-made disasters.

Welcome to the Army Mountain Warfare School (AMWS). During this course, you will receive some of the finest training the US Army has to offer. Our instructors are ready to pass on knowledge gained from years of experience and multiple combat deployments.While you are here, our first concern is for your safety. For this reason, you must be totally focused and maintain situational awareness at all times. 2. Operating in the mountains presents two distinct yet related challenges; first is the severe affects that weather and the environment have on personnel and equipment and second thes evere impact the terrain has on unit mobility. How well you solve these tactical problems will directly affect your ability to take the fight to the enemy in level two and three terrain.The skills you learn here at AMWS are tools to help you and your unit solve these challenges. 3. In the mountains of Afghanistan we face an adaptive, clever enemy who uses the harsh environment to his advantage to operate against us. With specialized mountain warfare training and equipment we can use that same terrain to our advantage and seize the initiative away from the enemy. 4. Untrained and unprepared, the mountain environment can be your worst enemy. Properly trained and equipped, it can be your strongest ally. We will give you the training. The rest is up to you. “Training Mountain Warriors!”
