Midweek ski tour up to the Gargoyles in the Diamond Head Area (Baldwin guide, pg. 53). Destination may change due to weather or avalanche/snowpack conditions.
Participants should be fairly fit - we will probably be out for 7-8 hours with minimal breaks. Headlamps should be brought, but will preferably not be used. This is not a suitable first time trip, but is suitable for fit, intermediate ski tourers looking to move beyond the "beginner" trips.
Participants should have all avalanche safety gear and know how to use it.
