Ski Mountaineering season is soon upon us. Pikes is currently at 266% of a 30 year mean for height of snow. The conditions are not yet spring-like or free of the persistent weak layers but we are set up well for April, May and we’re sure June too.
We have a few public courses that are filling and full. You can always book a private day or 2 or 3! Brings some friends and build your own Ski/Split Mountaineering Course. This is a banner year for Pikes Peak and we’re excited to share our knowledge of technique and the mountain with you.
