Hoping to get back out and ski! So, the plan is to tour from the Paradise lot in search of some decent snow. Likely elevation gain 4-5k. Location is subject to change based on whatever the weather provides, might also push to Sunday if the forecast looks better so please be flexible. Must have avy gear and some touring experience. Please email me prior to signup and at let me know something about your background/experience and that you can maintain a moderate pace for 5,000' gain.
