Trip Description

This is one of the classic ski trips in the Garibaldi Lake area. Approach is via Price Bay.

Participants must bring backcountry ski gear, avi gear, and headlamps (w spare batteries). Crampons are recommended for the top section which is often wind blasted and icy. Ski crampons are also a good idea on this type of trip.

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

Please be considerate and do NOT sign up unless you are 100% committed for the trip and you are at least an intermediate skier(can do black runs in any conditions, including trees, have done at least 10 trips in the backcountry) in the Backcountry. If in doubt about your capabilities send me a message and we can talk about it.

Distance: 25 km Elevation Gain: 1480 m Summit: 2051 m Estimated Time: around 10 hrs

 

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