Description:

 This trip is being cancelled due to very crappy weather/avy forecast.

Head up to the Wendy Thompson hut (near Pemberton) on Saturday. Night skiing and/or mulled "grape juice" in the evening. A few morning turns and ski-out on Sunday.

Trip Difficulty:

Intermediates are totally welcome. Beginners are ok in limited quantity. All participants MUST bring, and know how to use, their avy gear! For manageable group size I am going to limit participation to 10 people. The hut

Other details:

If you want to stay in the hut, we will need to make reservations. So far 4 of 16 spots have been reserved (by non-VOC). Let's wait until Wednesday to make any reservations so that we are sure about our destination.

No pretrip meeting: just email faff.

Backup option:

If participation is very limited (less than 4) we can try joining up with the Duffey Lake crew?
