Rogers Pass Jan 17-18 2008




One more photo I like this one but I forgot to post it.
















Another great trip with J Billing, M-A Cousineau and Ross .

Quote of the trip.
"Ross it looks like you got the short one"

We skied up to Asulkan Valley to the Asulkan Hut. The first day we approached the hut we we arrived at noon we grabbed a quick cup of tea and un-loaded our pack. From the up we proced up toward Young's peak were we skied a great line from Asulkan pass back to the hut. For most people that would be a great day but for the crazy crew that I was with they decide that they wanted more powder skiing so we continued down pass the hut to the valley bottom skiing over 1000m vertical. At the bottom we put our skins back on had a sip of Scotch and climbed back to the hut just as it got dark.

Day two we stared from the hut and skied down to the valley bottom again were we head up to the Asulkan Glacier. The climb up was great we had good light and great views of all the beautiful peaks around us.
We decide to ski down from just below Dome mountain were we got another 1000m of great fresh track. Again for most people that would be a great day but NO we did 2 more great short runs were we got fresh track every turn!

Before I knew our trip was over and back to the Renovations
