For conditions check out the forum (https://bcmc.ca/forum/#topic/Mt-Harvey-North-Ramp-and-David-Peak-April-13-201.htm) there is a good crust where we might avoid our snowshoes.
Chek your e-mail (even your junk folder). I will send e-mails for more details.
*if minimum safety levels are not met, the trip will be canceled, last minute cancellations do occur.
