Rogers Pass January 10-12 2008

5:30 am departure from Canmore, We end up in Golden and find the road to the pass closed Surprise, Surprise! We had a great breakfast while waiting for the road to open shortly after the road was open we hit the road and managed a great day of skiing at the Bonney Trees with a link up of the NRC gully.

The second day we skied up the Hermit to the toe of the Rogers Glacier where we dug a beauty snow pit and prepared for a great run back down to the car. The skiing in the alpine was great we skied rolling terrain into the final gully where we got some more good turns totaling 1000m of skiing. The evening activities include a lovely meal at the cafeteria (chicken fingers and fries) and washed down with some beers.

Our last day up Balu Pass as a great casual day with some great view and good skiing. Life in the pass was great and we had lots for laughs told dirty jokes and also some good clean fun.

Thanks for the great trip!
