Trip Description

At 8 am fly up from Backcomb Helicopter base in Whistler, to Rainbow mountain. My plan is to ski down to Rainbow lake (~900 m) for a breakfast. Then skin up Rainbow mtn and ski on the other side (East) along 19 Mile Creek down to Whistler.

Chilled day with nice weather in beautiful Whistler backcountry area.

Helicopter takes up 5 people and if we get 5, then the price is $175 per person.

Moderate pace, sign up if you are comfortable with riding in trees (19 Mile Creek section). We will have to boot pack a bit, down close to the Village. No need for glacier gear. I'm on a splitboard and can drive 3 more persons.

On the Trip list, I will move you to confirmed after $175 is transferred to me. In case we don't get 5 people and we all don't agree to pay more ($215 for 4 people), I will transfer you the money back and we can go somewhere else (no heli).
