** Rescheduled to May 20 **

This is another trip into the Spearhead via the proposed new backcountry access corridor from lot 8.

Blackcomb is currently closed.

The route goes from lot 8 to the bottom of 7th via Sunset Blvd. From there we'll climb over Blackcomb and Spearhead. Return will be via Corona or Husume.

Participants must bring backcountry touring gear, avi gear, and headlamps (w spare batteries). Ski crampons are always a good idea on this type of spring trip. 

No one leaves until everyone is out.

Please note: This is a fast paced day trip requiring a high level of fitness and is not suitable as a first trip with the club. You must be able to independently navigate in the mountains and be at least an intermediate level skier. I have posted a GPS track of our planned route.

I'll be posting final trip conditions and info within 24 hours of the trip start. We will be organizing rides at St Davids. If you have special ride requirements please post them in the Planning Forum.

Please ensure the phone number on your BCMC profile matches the number of the cell phone you will be carrying with you.
