Start: Sunday, Feb. 2nd

Description:

If the conditions look good I want to ski up Cayoosh via the armchair glacier, and descend via any one of the potential descents (million dollar couloir if it's in would be sick).

Because of the highly technical aspects of this line, I'm going to be very selective and keep the group size down quite a bit. The prerequisites are:

  • AST 1 and at least one season of touring experience
  • Confident skiing double black diamonds in the resort, or steep terrain at or above 40 degrees
  • Confident boot packing steep snow slopes
  • G1 or equivalent knowledge of crevasse rescue systems and self-arresting

I am happy to do this either as a day trip or an overnighter on the night of the first. I don't think we'll have a pretrip but I'll send a WhatsApp invite the week of. If conditions are bad, may do musical bumps or something similar instead.
