November Trips

Sproat. Nov 8th.
Dan and Kate. First trip of the season; a casual stroll up sproat.  Wasn't a great deal of skiing, but the sunset was all-time…..

In my happy place near Gin Peak

Gin and Tonic Lakes

View over to Sproat



Ridiculous Sunset


Metal Dome. Nov 10th. 
Dan, Vince, Kate, Jake. Another shake down trip with killer views.  Drove all the way to the Brandywine cabin, then skinned up to one of the cols just below the summit of Metal Dome. Wanted to ski the glacier but the crevasse hazard was huge after this brutal summer. Good skiing on the way back down thou :-)

Sweet view over to Garibaldi and Blacktusk


Deciding that we can't ski the Metal Dome glacier.


Vince and Link on the way down


Paul Ridge Nov 15th. 
Dan, Felix, Gab, Sam, Jake, Vero. Snow was good so another pre season warm up to Paul Ridge.  It ludicrously busy up there, must have been over 100 people. The whole zone was shredded by early afternoon.  Skiing was good thou.

Heading up to Red Heather

Sam making some turns

Getting me some Pow

Sun God. Nov 21st. 
Dan, Sam. First trip with the new sled… Sun God was a bit keen as it is so f*cking far away… plus we basically had no idea what we were doing…. long drive… tiny bit of sledding, but lots of fun :-)

Ready to unload the sled.



Stoked for a new adventure


Brandywine. Nov 29. 
Dan, Andy, Vince. Another sled trip… this time less ambitious. Still no skiing…. but getting used to the machine.

Slightly more successful sled trip this time around!
