Basic mountaineering training. Must have completed at least one PD+ ice/snow route.
Grocery List:
* Pair of ice tools(hammer + adze),
* steel (no aluminum!) crampons,
* helmet,
* climbing harness,
* 60m 8mm half rope ( I have one already so one more would be good)
* 2+ ice screws,
* rescue pulley,
* ascender (tibloc or jumar)
* rappel / anchor material,
* 2+ snow pickets with runners attached,
* min. two 5mm prusiks,
* minimal rock protection set if you have ( passive pros preferred),
* personal emergency kit (head lamp with spare batteries, medical, PLB/SPOT/GPS if you have).
* a sense of humor
Safety Level
POP (probability of precipitation) < 40%
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.
