Avatar

Starting up a thread to get a collective view of where we are all going to be this Nth Hemi winter!  Getting a bit excited!!

We are doing:

Rossland, BC -8-15 Jan
Nelson, BC 15-23 Jan
Akakura Onsen 24 Jan - Feb 3
Seattle Mountains - Mid-Feb - Mid-March

Anyone planning on being in any of the places around the same times?  If not, where are you planning to spend your Jan-Feb?

The northern winter is looking to be a cracker this year!!

Sounds awesome mate, just checked out the Verts snowshoes, they look really interesting.  We are doing our AST1 while in BC and a splitboard or snowshoes are mandatory, the Verts look like they could be perfect!

*edit* just bought 2 x sets!

Nice one they are great snowshoes for Snowboarders can’t wait to try them another tip is to grab some Free The Powder Gloves just got a pair of RX3 as every manufacturer seems to be doing under gloves.
You have great trip planned wish I could get a leave pass that long from the wife.

 

I’m in Nelson/whitewater if anyone’s out this way hit me up for a ride

Yes you have it sorted I guess I am doing okay to get my leave pass every year. I am always envious of your trips. Might need a new wife.
