Itinerary:

Looking for 1-3 partners for a moderate paced day to ski a lap or two. Probably looking at 600-800m, maybe 10km ish.  Plan is to be back at the car by 3pm. Group choice on where to go with suggested possible areas on 93N south of Bow Summit, 93S near Vermillion pass or off of Highway 1 near the BC/AB border. Open other ideas but wanting to go to areas that got more snow in this recent dump this week.  

Final arrangements to be made on Friday with the group.
