Description:

It has been far, far too long since I was up at the Brain Waddington Hut and I want to check out how those fancy new windows we installed are doing. Also, I normally practically live up there in the winter and I don't know why I just don't find myself up there as much this year.

So, I'm going up this weekend. The mission is not to move blindingly quickly, but I do want to get some legitimate skiing done, so I'd like to make this an intermediate/advanced beginner friendly trip. If you've been on a couple of trips and are pretty comfortable skinning and carrying a pack (and can move at a consistent speed), I'm sure you'll be fine. This is not going to be an 'instructional' trip, but we won't leave people for dead either.

If you're not sure if this trip is for you, feel free to post on the message board and I'll let you know. We'll have a pre-trip on Wednesday evening at 6pm.
