This is a beginner friendly ski tour up Fat Dog Creek in Manning Park. This trip will be mostly about the tour, and not really about the ski. There are some low angle slopes off the ridge that approaches Heather Trail.
My objective is to get out and get some exercise. With the storm approaching late Wednesday evening and Thursday, I'd like to stay in safe terrain. Be ready to break trail.
AST1 will be required, as are beacon, shovel and probe.
