Trip Description

I would like to do the classic Neve Traverse over 3 days (bcs it is a long weekend) and climb Mt Garibaldi if the weather is nice. I would like to do the traverse north to south as I dislike walking down the rubble creek switchbacks. The trip overall will be beginner friendly as a 3 day neve crossing is fairly easy and if you have been skiing before and carried an overnight pack then you should be fine. We should bring harnesses and glacier gear for the glacier travel. I do not anticipate roping up but we should have a couple light ropes between the group. If you have never done glacier stuff then I can teach.

I have not come up with good spots to camp but will do closer to the day. Also, if the weather is no good then I may postpone or shift locations and/or sports.
