Rogers Pass: December

Moderate

DESCRIPTION:

Searching Availability...

The Course:

 

Rogers Pass is renowned for its huge snowfall and cold deep powder skiing and in late December it can be waist deep! Based out of Golden B.C. This is an ideal trip for intermediate to strong skiers who like to ski a lot!

 

Rogers Pass is located just east of Revelstoke and is a truly epic location for ski & snowboard touring. In fact, it has quick access to a variety of terrain which works for all abilities and weather conditions. The amazing powder and snowfalls in this area have made Rogers Pass famous among winter sports enthusiasts looking for long runs and amazing descents.

 

The Day:

 

Plan to meet the group in Golden at the Kicking Horse River Lodge on the morning of December 26th, the group will sign waivers then head out to the pass.

 

There will be a companion rescue training exercise to review the use and procedures of the avalanche gear then head out for the day.

 

We can accommodate first time back-country skiers with intermediate ski skills on this trip as we don't want them to miss out on the Deep December Powder skiing!

 

A detailed course package will be emailed 3 days prior to course commencement.

 

If you have any questions about this program contact the AAA office at info@alpineairadventures.com.

 

*If you have an exceptional experience and would like to leave a tip for your guide, 10-15% is a customary amount. You can pay with cash or contact the AAA office directly to arrange.
