Aemmer Couloir **

A fun day on a classic Rockies line off Mount Temple’s north ridge. Snow quality prevented this tour from getting a 3-star rating from me as it was skied out when we were there.

Mount Hector **

A surprisingly quick ski tour up an easily accessible 11,000er. Via Hector’s crevassed north glacier.

Cathedral Mountain ***

A classic ski mountaineering adventure that deserves a write-up. A few alternative descents are possible if conditions permit!

Citadel Peak **

An awesome ski-assisted scramble and slog if that is your thing. If not, this will probably be a 1-star rating for you. Via Citadel’s south ridge.

Birdwood Traverse **

Via Burstall Pass and Commonwealth Creek. A fun traverse around Mount Birdwood that allows you to see a bunch of cool terrain.

Cirque Peak North Couloir **

Via Cirque’s south ridge and Katherine Lake exit. This tour has a lot to offer – skiing, scree, rappelling, glacier travel, and a fun couloir! The Katherine Lake exit is longer, but allows you to return to the start without needing a second vehicle.

Numa North Chute **

Via unnamed Numa NW3’s north ridge. A fine reward for a less-than-desirable ridge scramble.

Mount Field **

A deservedly popular ski ascent in the Yoho with a couple cool lines to ski along the way, if you wish. Save it for a stable weekday to avoid the crowds!

Mount Haffner **

Via Haffner’s southwest slopes. A nice little summit with great views and decent skiing when you’re short on time and/or stability.

Emerald South Peak ***

Via Emerald’s South Ridge. A fun, safe variation to the classic slide-path route.
