Itinerary:
POSTPONED FROM 13 APRIL Aiming for a peak and if possible a nice couloir - Surprise Pass, Cirque Peak North, etc; will make a decision on Saturday depending on conditions; obviously need stability so if there are any safety concerns will aim for a more conservative alternative. Participants must have at least AST 1 or equivalent and basic crevasse training, and be comfortable skiing steep lines. Please note that Cirque Peak North might require a rappel, thus you need to be comfortable rapelling with skis on backpack. Splitboards ok, snowshoes with snowboard on carry not. The early start is necessary to avoid the daytime warming hazard. Looking forward to a fun day & with a fun crew!
Required Items to Bring:
Ski touring gear, Avi gear (transceiver digital min 2 antenna, metal shovel, probe min 2.4m), glacier travel gear (harness, prussiks, biners, etc)

Helmet highly recommended
