Trip Rating: Strong Intermediate – Advanced Ski

On this trip we will ski at Paradise, Reflection Lakes, Mt. Tahoma Hut area, and maybe by White Pass.  We will choose locations and routes depending on weather and snow conditions. You need backcountry skis and sturdy boots.  Backcountry skills will be needed if you want to have fun.  We will carpool and share driving costs.  A National Parks Pass and Washington Sno-park Pass will be needed for each car.  Drive time is about 3 hours one way.

We will be staying at the Dancing Bear Lodge in Ashford, WA. Nice lodge with Pool Table and Hot Tub. Dinners will be shared.  Breakfasts and lunches are each skier’s responsibility.

I plan on driving up early on Monday and skiing ½ a day before we go to the lodge.  Likewise on Thursday, the plan is to ski then drive home.
