Description

Take some time off and escape into the wilderness around Leavenworth in exceptionally beautiful Washington State!

Join one of our certified guides for a satisfying day of ski touring through the lovely scenery in this nook of the eastern Cascade Mountains.

We will spend the day skiing around Icicle Creek Canyon, which is mostly known for its rock climbing walls, but also offers some excellent, and less traveled, ski touring conditions as well.

Over the course of the day, we will head up to Point 7600′, which is a subsidiary of Mount Cashmere, and enjoy some excellent runs in pristine powder.

After that, we will head over and ski the popular Canyon Mountain couloir. This spot is likely to have a bit of traffic, but the rest of the day we’re unlikely to see many other skiers.

This is perfect because it means we’ll get plenty of untouched snow all to ourselves. Icicle Creek Canyon is known for accumulating snow during the winter. While the resorts in town may only have a few inches, we’ll have more than a foot!

So what are you waiting for? Book now for an incredibly scenic and fulfilling day of backcountry ski touring in the eastern slopes of Washington State’s Cascade Mountains!

If you like the look of this trip, then we think you will also enjoy our 2-day ski mountaineering expedition on Mount Adams!

Ended up booking a one-night-and-one-day hike summiting Mt Shasta because Mt Rainier was booked out.

I really loved it. Intro to rock climbing was an amazing experience. Explore-share team were so helpful in the process. The trip that I chose in the first place was not available and they managed to find alternatives and offer me the best possible solution in that situation. In the end I had a wonderful day and could not be happier!

Guide cancelled within 48 hrs and I was unable to find someone else and so far I’ve not been refunded. Put a small dent in my otherwise great trip to Revelstoke.

It would have been helpful to know it was suppose to be a Matterhorn prep course. The goals of the group were a little different.
