Trip Description

The plan is to stay 2 nights in Burton Hut. People can choose to camp outside while using the hut as shelter for cooking or staying in the hut itself. I believe the hut does not have any firewood, so be prepared for winter camping conditions.

Objective for the 3 days can be discussed. Generally planning to ski or summit around Guard Mountain/Deception peak area, The Bookworms, The Sphinx or Mt Price.

Everyone should have the 10 essentials with them, winter camping gear, glacier travel and rescue gear, avalanche safety gear. Everyone is expected to participate in group decision-making.

Pace will be moderate. Not too slow but not too crazy fast either. People should be comfortable doing 1200m-1800m in elevation in a day.

Trip will be cancelled if the visibility is poor, strong winds or high avalanche hazards.
