View source for Archive:Gili's Beginner Friendly Day Trip, 6/2/2011

{{trip date|6|02|2011}}

==Synopsis==

This is a beginner friendly winter ski day trip. The beginner part means that we will help beginners and wait for them, but you must be fit, prepared for the weather, have backcountry skied before and importantly: must have probe, shovel and transceiver and know how to use them. The final destination will be decided closer to the trip, based on the forecast and avalanche hazard. Some options: [[Telemagique Ridge]] (near Callaghan), [[Mount Sproatt]] (near Whistler), [[Zoa Peak]], Zupjok or Great Bear (all on the Coquihalla, so a bit far), and others. We will probably leave quite early, since the days are short. Since this is a last minute day trip, we will organize it on the wiki and message board - no pre-trip meeting.
