Old Trip
This is the sign up and organization page for an old trip. It already happened. Please do not sign up for it.

Why? What? Huh?

Many people will be done with exams by Easter Weekend, and the snowpack will only get thinner from here-so why not ski while there still is some? (and if you're not done with exams, come anyway!)

Three days will mean that we'll have plenty of time to ski as opposed to skiing in all of first day then skiing out the next day.

We'll be heading up to Brew Hut for the long weekend, where it will be cozy and hopefully not too crowded.

While this is beginner-friendly, I would really appreciate a hand in leading from more experienced people-plus, you'll get to get out too and make the club a better place...

Possible arrangement to ride up to trailhead with Powder Mountain Catskiing.


If you any questions, email me (sanozang at hotmail) or on the forums thread!
