Itinerary:

Let's take advantage of the great snow conditions and lap some pow. Likely in K-Country. 


Plan is to make conservative choices and ski at treeline and below. We'll look to ski upwards of 30 degree slopes if the conditions allow. Participants do not have to be pro skiers but should have a reasonable level of ability - at least be able to get down blacks at the resort and comfortably ski blues. Should also be reasonably fit so we can do a few laps. If we haven't skied together before shoot me an email at davecummingdsc@gmail.com with a description of your ski experience and any questions. 

Required Items to Bring:

Backcountry ski gear, beacon, probe, shovel.


Recommended Items to Bring:

Radio if you have it. 


How to Get There:
Carpool Departure Time:   07:00 AM
Carpool Location:   Valley Ridge Outdoor Rink

If the coordinator cancels an event, participants get a refund (less any non-recoverable costs). Note that ACC National does not refund hut fees due to weather, delay, closures, or any other reasons.
