Introduction
This is an intermediate friendly ski trip for those who are comfortable winter camping, and can already survival ski.
Organizer
Breanne Johnson is organizing this trip. However, leaders are needed in order to accomodate more beginners. Contact Breanne if you have enough winter camping and skiing experience to share around.
Equipment List
See Intro to Backcountry Skiing main articlefor a detailed equipment list. Pay special attention to the "Ski Hardware" and "Avalanche Safety Gear" sections. Avalanche transceivers, shovels, and probes are mandatory for this trip. You will also need backcountry skis (either telemark or touring), boots, poles, and skins. You will also need a burly overcontainer for your poo bag. We are "packing it in, packing it out" since our group is so large. As an example, an old nalgene bottle works well.
Avalanche Education
It is recommended that you educate yourself about avalanches before the trip. Consider reading through the online avalanche course.
