Pick up your goodie bag, demo gear if you need it, and discuss backcountry safety with a top Crystal Mountain Pro Patroller while indulging in light apps. Saturday, March 30th we will begin with a quick meet up over pastries and coffee at Crystal Mountain before breaking into groups. Conditions will dictate where the day takes us, but be assured that you will get time to practice with your beacon, probe and shovel, tour Crystal’s amazing backcountry and connect with other rad women. We will end recapping the day’s adventures at the base of Crystal. Skiers, telemarkers and splitboarders are all welcome.
Limited ski and splitboard demos will be available with advanced sign up. Just sign up by checking the box below. This page will be updated when we run out of demos so sign up early.
