Discovery Tour. Co-Leaders Ron Jarvis and Bonnie Eiber. Pre-Trip Discussion over breakfast @ Bruno’s. Leader’s Choice on final destination based on weather and other conditions. Primary trip objective: Safe fun in the mountains with new and old friends on skis and/or snowboard. Prefer minimum distance covered and maximum downhill skiing for effort expended. Possibility of auto-assisted vertical and/or yo-yo skiing of single short slope containing good snow. Do not sign up for this tour if you are looking for an epic, life changing experience. Expect a fun relaxed pace. At least intermediate skiing/riding skills would be advisable; terrain possible could be steeps, alpine, trees, mellow cruisers, and/or trail skiing. If there is fresh snow or any trail breaking required expect to break trail unless you are over 70, and a trip leader :). Avalanche gear and basic avy training required. Leader permission required prior to self-registration. Please email with a short summarizing any prior skiing and backcountry experience to ron.jarvis@yahoo.com.
