Trip Description

This is a fly-in-fly-out, week-long, cabin-based ski trip.  The area offers everything from long glacier runs to steep trees.  Skiers must be comfortable skiing in variable snow conditions from deep powder to breakable crust.  Typical ski days involve 1500 m of ascent.  Participants must be reasonably fit (Grind or equivalent in under an hour) and be competent backcountry skiers with all the gear and experience with rescue techniques (AST 1 or equivalent).  The cabin offers loft-style accommodation and is warm, well lit with solar lighting, and has a propane range with an oven and just about everything you would find in a well-stocked kitchen.  The nearby sauna allows you to have a shower as well.  We will be sharing cooking duties for breakfast and dinner.  Approximate costs are $750 including flight,  cabin and food, but will vary depending on weather and shared flights.  To fly with Blackcomb Helicopters or to stay in the cabin, you must be fully vaccinated.  The helicopter company will wish to see proof of vaccination.
