This trip is self guided and self catered. AST2 or equivalent is required. We will continue the practices which include an avi scenrio upon arrival at the lodge. As well. each participant is expected to perform personal snow assessment each day and actively participate in daily group risk assessment discussions.

Vista Lodge is "FIFO" fly-in, fly out, and flights are Friday based from Golden BC. It is recommended to be in Golden the night prior. Weather conditions could impact the heli flight so please keep this in mind.
