14er ski partner this weekend (May 13-14)

Post by mtn_girl »

Hi, all,

Looking to splitboard a 14er this weekend before the snow melts. AIARE level 1, beacon/shovel/probe, done a couple couloirs and move at a moderate pace. Would prefer San Juans as that is where I'm based (weather forecast looks great), but would be open to other options as well. PM if interested!

Cheers,
Katherine

The spring gathering is this weekend, there will be a lot of people in the sawatch looking to ski and board.

A few of us are getting together to climb and/or ski The Grand couloir up Mt. Aetna on Saturday. Your welcome to join. Not the San Juans but it's close.

Was wondering if I could possible tag along. Would be an incredible experience! I do not have a split board but I am in good physical condition and looking to meet people to start climbing and riding alpine peaks this season...we could meet at the trailhead...get back to me when ever possible to discuss in further detail.
