Decker Mountain

February 8th 2020


Description

Day ski trip to Decker mountain from base 2 at Blackcomb.
We’ll be ascending via Sunset Blvd to the base of 7th Heaven and heading into the backcountry from that access. From Decker we’ll return via Corona Bowl and Blackcomb glacier.
It may be rescheduled for Sunday if the forecast for Saturday is poor. That decision will be made early Friday evening.
This is a fast paced day trip requiring a high level of fitness and is not suitable as a first trip with the club. You must be able to independently navigate in the mountains and be at least an intermediate level skier.
Distance: 22.4 km
Elevation Gain: 2000 m
Summit: 2421 m
Estimated Time: 8 hrs
I’ll be posting final trip conditions and info within 24 hours of the trip start. We will be organizing rides at St Davids.

This is the second trip of the season into the Spearhead from Blackcomb Base 2 so no tickets required. We are working collaboratively with WB on establishing this corridor and will have a ski patrol escort to the ski area boundary.
