The plan is to skin up from Rubble Creek parking lot, cross Taylor Meadows and make an attempt at skinning up the ridge. 

Under 10 hours is the goal so please only sign up if you are physically fit. There is some 30ish degree terrain so you should be confident skiing steeper terrain in a range of conditions. 

Its approx. 1500m of elevation gain from car park to ridge top over 13km. It'll be a big day so be prepared!

 
Lets keep an eye on avi and weather conditions leading up to Saturday. Visibility and suitable avi conditions are a must for the ridge ascent. 

Looking for three to six people. 

Best guess/target timelines for the day:

• Leave St Davids at 06:00
• Arrive at Rubble Creek at 07:15
• Start skinning by 07:30
• Back at cars no later than 17:30
• Turnaround time of 13:30
• Will assess ridge conditions, duration and time of day before starting ascent
• Back in Van for 19:00

Please research the route and conditions. Have all of your equipment together as well as the ten essentials. AST1 training and gear ready to go.
