For those tired skiing the out-and-back on Bennett pass, this is a variant which turns it into a loop tour. As per usual we head out from Bennett pass, ski the S-curves, windy pass and the famed “TERRIBLE TRAVERSE”. From there we head out a little further and have a wonderful downhill on an old logging road into pocket creek. We then ski back but now we are skiing at the base of the ridge that we skied out on. The end of the tour is somewhat of a drag as we have to climb back out of pocket creek. But then we arrive at the car and relax.
This tour has a mix of road and trail skiing. Good fitness is required and intermediate level turning for trail sections and S-curves. Please do not sign up for this tour if you do not meet these requirements.
Once you have signed up for this tour, I will email you several info packets which should supply the information you need to assess the difficulty of this tour.
