Trip Description

Looking for a window of good weather on Wednesday to do the ski traverse from Cypress Bowl to Lions Bay. If the weather forecast for Wednesday deteriorates I might reschedule it for Thursday

You need headlamp, spare batteries, skis, snow shovel, probe and beacon. In terms of skiing ability, you need to be competent skiing steep trees, big alpine slopes and narrow trails. You also need to be physically fit as it is a long way to Lions Bay with a fair bit of up and down.

The group size of 8 depends on the number of vehicles we get. For example, two vehicles are required for four people. For eight people, four vehicles are required.
