Trip & Timing is subject to weather. Date could be moved back (again)
Rather than an overnighter, propose a car camp or stay in Pemberton to allow an early start.
Driving route will be off Rutherford Creek FSR sooner and take a branch FSR to a cutblock at about 50.18'16''N 122.54'43"W, and then contour round into the Pemberton Creek valley and approach the east side of Ipsoot. The condition of the FSR requires high clearance 4x4. Route is viewable here (the south eastern approach) https://caltopo.com/m/J2B7 (Thanks Mark and Anthony for the info)
As always, weather will have final say on trip status. Plan B could be something in the Chilliwack or Coquihalla area
Recommend all participants be on skis for efficiency/consistency purposes.
Know before you go. Have at least AST1 and very good fitness; it will be a big day. Crevasse rescue gear might be wise; regardless, this should not be your first time on a glacier.
Move details as the date nears.
