Hi, I'm headed out next week for five days on the Columbia Icefields around Jasper. We are hopeing to bag/ski a few of the peaks around there and I was hopeing for some feedback on my list:
Clothing: Cap1 t-shirt Cap1 long sleeved t-shirt (sun/sleeping in) Silkweight long-johns 2 silkweight boxers Mixmaster pants Cap4 shirt R1 Hoody R2 vest EPIC Hoody w/pocket vents - OR - Houdini DAS Parka Ball cap bandana fleece hat wool hat
Hands: 2 pairs softshell gloves Patagonia Strech Element Gloves Bufflo Mitts -OR- Mercury Mitts
Feet: 2 pairs liners RHB insulated socks Smartwool Mountineer socks MEC hut booties??? Scarpa Lasers
Sleep: 3/4 length Prolite4 WM Puma -OR- Apache? foam torso pad from pack pee bottle scrub brush and small spoung (for removing snow/water)
Not 100% sure of our sleep system, would be good to have all three of us in one tent but might have to go with two tents. Probaly will bring 2 white gass stoves, two pots, and cook in freazer bags/tupperware.
Gear: shovel, probe, tranciver, each. one snow saw 8.1x60m rope crevase rescue gear 6 screws 3-4 pickets/deadmen 4 sholder length draws 2 double length draws ID Guides Tarp Black garbage bag for snow collection/melting BD Raven pro axe Half Done helmet???
Ski stuff: BD Kilowatts, skins 1 bd carbon fiber adjustable ski pole 1 wippet
I'm wondering if I am making a mistake not planning on taking wp/b rain gear or any extra leg insulation like micropuff pants. What do people think? We'll be at about 10,000 and 11,000-12,000 feet on a glacier and the weather at the parking lot (about 6 to 7,000 feet) is mainly sunny about +8C to +12C during the day and -8C at night.
