Change of location, there are a number of BITS trips running
to Healy, so I decided to change it up a bit. This trip is for
those new to the backcountry, and those wishing to expand
their current knowledge. We will tour up to Helen Lake, check
snow conditions, discuss terrain and avi conditions, and
hopefully get in a few turns.

Avi Transceiver, probe, shovel, skis, skins, poles.

Lunch, hot drink, down or equivalent jacket to wear when
stopped, any required personal gear, firat aid kit, small repair
