Ski, snowboard and other snow related sports, including ski mountaineering and touring.
As it's still raining in Cumbria, I decided the only way to get some practice for the winter was to set myself a day tour.......................
The weather's rubbish, so I tried glue sniffing................
I couldn't resist sending another report from a superb trip I did yesterday with Garland Jonker...
Today Bev, Rob MacKenzie and I skied to a subsidiary summit (2820 m) of Crowfoot Mountain, which is located immediately east of the Wapta Icefields...
Yesterday Andy Paul and I bagged White Pyramid (3275m), a ski mountaineering gem in the Canadian Rockies...
We'd set the alarm to get us out early today; it failed!
Now is the high season for ski mountaineering in the Canadian Rockies...
Last year Anna and I optimistically booked a ski trip well ahead of any snow forecasts; well the time came and we were lucky with the weather and the snow.
We thought we only had a short day today (we had a meeting at 6pm), so we opted for a ski tour at Contamine.
