Itinerary:
Rogers Pass Motel Mayhem 5! We have killer weekends in the pass. We ski hip deep pow even when everyone else in the pass is fighting crud. How? Because we know how to read a weather forecast, we know how to read a contour map and we go where the snow is, not where 'everyone goes'. So, back to the Pass we go; bring your snorkel. This is January in Rogers Pass. Basically - we have another guaranteed weekend of killer snow. Just like the past four trips, the game plan is to do some motel accessed skiing in Rogers Pass. We'll be leaving from Our Lady of the Assumption School at 6pm and then staying at the Dreamcatcher Hostel in Golden for the next two nights while bagging turns by day. This trip is friendly to a broad range of experience levels; you don't have to be a great skier, but you have to be willing to be involved in discussions. This motel mayhem will have a more beginner focus than normal - so if you haven't been to the pass before, this could be your chance. You should be prepared for long days (not monster days, but we're not going to be taking it super easy either) and you should be prepared to be involved in your safety decisions. You should be prepared to pay $70 for the two nights combined. There's a kitchenette so we'll do a communal meal on Saturday night which will probably include a slow cooker and whatever you, the aspirant participant feel like bringing.
Required Items to Bring:
It's a motel based ski touring trip, if you don't know what to bring, email me. Bring Avi stuff. Bring stuff to eat.
