Snow shoeing, skiing and ice climbing in the Daks

The Adirondaks offer climbing, skiing and snowshoeing opportunities at all levels of difficulty. Plans will include one long day over one of the higher peaks, possibly including sections of moderate angle ice. A second day may be spent on local ice crags.

We hope to have enough participants for two groups, offering a choice of objectives. The "less ambitious" can choose a day of lift-serviced skiing at Whiteface while the "more ambitious" can choose a ten hour forced march mountaineering route with a headlamp return.

Closer to the weekend we will meet in order to discuss and select objectives that suit the interests and skills of the participants. Of course the weather and the ice and snow conditions at the time will force us to change everything anyway. It's good to have plans, but it's stupid to stick to them regardless.

We'll be staying at the Montreal Section's Keene Farm.
