Gated Access Areas

Heather

Likely for Saturday - (Greater than 50% chance) Under Evaluation. Conditions Permitting. 

Stay out of roped off drainages. Roped-off creek holes are large and very dangerous. Also many smaller creek holes exist at the bottom of slopes. Smaller creek holes may be unmarked. Ski with caution. Ride with a buddy. Enter through gates only.

Private Reserve

Likely for Saturday - (Greater than 50% chance) Conditions Permitting. 

The Private Reserve gates access expert only terrain. We strongly recommend that you have knowledge of the area, ride with a buddy, keep your buddy in sight and that both you and your buddy wear an avalanch beacon, carry a shovel and probe and know how to use these tools. You will be riding in avalanche terrain and will encounter cliffs, creeks and waterfalls that may not be marked. Rescue will be extended. As always, only enter through open gates, ride within your ability and know before you go!

What to Expect

Cascade

Likely for Saturday - (Greater than 50% chance) Weather Permitting. 

Vista

Likely for Saturday - (Greater than 50% chance) Weather Permitting.
