Trip Description

A week of skiing at Rogers Pass -- the most affordable location to enjoy the best skiing.  Rogers Pass typically has fantastic skiing conditions in February with oodles of champagne powder (waist deep last year) and magnificient scenery. We will do day trips covering close to 2,000m elevation gain every day, so you must be a competent skier and in good shape to enjoy this trip. Rogers Pass is known for its good snow, but also for its challenging avalanche terrain -- so you must also have some experience in avalanche safety to participate on this trip: AST-1 or AST-2 training (or equivalent).

We will be staying at the Glacier Park Lodge, 2 people per room. Cost is around $50 pp per night plus car-pooling. A $500 deposit that covers pretty well all accommodation costs plus car pooling is required to reserve a spot. In case of a cancellation the deposit will be refunded if you find an alternate participant; in cases where an alternate participant cannot be found, the deposit will be used to pay for encurred costs (for example half the room cost if the group is an odd number as a result of the cancellation) with any unused balance returned to you -- this is NOT a profit-making trip for the organizer, the deposit is only to cover unavoidable costs.

Contact the organizer for more information.
