Ok,
Here’s the details.
I’m 45 and finally have a BC setup. I’ve never used the gear but want to start.
I figured we’re past 99% of the avy danger (unless a new bigger storm arrives) so I want to get some good corn skiing in before the bears wake up.
I set my sights on Dad’s peak MT.
Has anyone done dad’s recently? Any beta you can share? Anyone want to travel with a noob?
Ill be heading up to the “beginner’s zone” across from Lookout pass ski area this weekend to familiarize myself with the gear...after that, I would like to set a target peak and Dad’s is 1st on my list.
I don’t have my avy 1 course yet...I just didn’t have the time to dedicate to it this year. It’s also the reason I waited to make this post and go on a trip until late in the season. I will definitely make time to get it done next season though. (Is one still available this season?)
Does anyone want to try and tackle Dad’s peak with me? I can offer you a free protein bar to sweeten the deal
