Trip Description

Newish or rusty skier? This is the trip for you! Come on down to the freshly opened to the public Coquihalla for some skiing on some gentle slopes. My inclination is the easily accessible slopes off of Thar (not a ski to the summit, which might be beyond this group). You are expected to have some ability in skiing: blue runs at Whistler, some familiarity with survival skiing through trees, but you don't have to be fast or graceful. Knowledge of avalanche safety is a must (AST1 appreciated), and as there may be car pooling: vax and mask is strongly encouraged.

You are expected to bring:

shovel/probe/beacon

10 essentials

headlamp

 

I will bring a Zoleo (satellite transmitter) and will set up a check in person for this trip. Trip is contingent on weather and status of the road.
