Oh and a quick note regarding avi gear – there is no real avi risk on the way to or from the hut. If you ambitions of really exploring the local area, you could bring your kit, but I don’t know that I will personally bother as I don’t see myself entering any terrain steep enough to slide that has any snow loading. There’s lots of hiking to do without messing with avi slopes.
Hey Alana, Kiran spoke to Kananaskis today and they were saying that it was pretty thin out there. As in we’re walking. They’re estimating snow coverage at the pass at only a few centimetres – though they haven’t been out there. I’m going to hike in personally.
