Either hike or ski Mamquam Mtn, July 1-3

This combo hike/SkiMo welcomes fit, experienced hikers or skiers, as we slog up to the 2,588m summit above massive, glaciated terrain. I haven't decided if I'll ski or hike this trip, but the snow wont start until after a few hours of hiking in, so expect to carry them a good ways. We'll monitor snow levels and conditions to guide that decision as the date nears.

Expect ~35km over the three days, gaining about 1,900m.

Day one will be 7-8 hours

Summit Day will be roughly 8-9 hours

And Day 3 might only be 5-6 hours.

There will be some steep sections, so comfort on challenging terrain is a must.  

Camp will likely be near or beyond Darling Lake. We’ll judge in situ.

Before signing up, please understand the route, conditions, and your equipment and ability for a trip like this. Have at least AST 1 (recommend AST 2) and >1 year of experience in similar terrain. Note that significant glacier travel is involved.

Logistics to be worked out in the forum. Thanks
