Winter Climb Series
The Winter Climb Series consists of club organized all day snowshoe outings that occur every other Sunday from the beginning of December through the end of February. A typical trip is about 3000 ft of elevation gain plus cross country travel on snowshoes to a summit.
The details for each outing will be posted as an “Event” in the Facebook group “Boealps Snowshoe Outings” or on our discord.
The week before each trip a Facebook “Event” or discord thread will be created to announce the details about the specific destination, where to meet, the planned route, ect. To sign up for an outing you use the “Going” selection in the Facebook Event or “interested” on the discord event for the outing.
Gear Required: Snowshoes, microspikes (or crampons), ice axe, hiking poles, avalanche beacon/probe/shovel (we have some loaners available). Winter clothing to safely function in a wet, cold, snowy environment. We do not go to destinations that require use of ropes or harnesses.
