This is a long day, with the descent of rubble creek likely being more challenging than the hike up. I'm doing it on a splitboard, and you are more than welcome to also do it on one, in fact this is preferred, as misery loves company, but be warned: it's gonna suck! :)

The pace will be moderate, but steady with not a lot of breaks.

We might start and end in the dark, so headlamps are advised. Turn-around time will be decided by the group based on trail conditions, weather, avalanche risk in the alpine, and the amount by which we underestimated our fitness levels.

Ideally everyone can participate in the decision-making process, and is familiar with the area. 10 essentials, reasonable level of fitness, and AST1 or equivalent required, as well a solid sense of humour.
