This day out is intended for those interested in joining some of the trips coming up beyond January. This will consist of a 10 minute hike to Dinky Peak just outside of the Seymour parking lot and then approx. 6 hours of practice time as a group which will familiarize the group with skill levels of each individual. Also a good chance for an exchange of ideas on snow protection, belay methods/options, etc... I will have a list of stuff that we should go over. Trip will proceed rain/shine/snow/or poor avalanche conditions. Trip may be modified to accommodate poor conditions or to increase safety.
