Weekend trip to Sphinx Camp. The weather and avalanche conditions on Saturday will probably be crap, thus preventing a trip to most other places. Sphinx was selected because it is mostly in the trees and avalanche hazard is usually pretty low in the middle of a lake. If conditions are good on Sunday, there is some excellent ski terrain available. If not, Sphinx is far enough to make enough of a trip to be worth while.

My car is leaving early on Saturday morning. Please have independent cars as it is a long way in (~14km with 1000m elavation gain) and waiting for a big group is very time consuming. The navigation across the lake may be difficult if it is a complete whiteout and previous tracks get filled in with snow.
