Module 2: Possible Course Tours

For the winter field sessions of Module 2, we meet for breakfast each morning at 6:30 at the AMC PNVC.
In prior years, we have started skinning up at 7:30 or shortly thereafter.

In 2015, although not a formally registered course, we toured for 5720' vertical and almost 10 miles, traveling through Oakes Gulf (Lakes hut entrance and Airplane Bowl), NE Snowfield, and AR Central:

For the 2013 course (pictures here), on Saturday we toured for 6400' vertical and ~15.5 miles, reaching a high point truly above treeline (as opposed to the various at-treeline ravines), within about 800' of the summit:

Then for Sunday in 2013, we toured for 3200' vertical and ~8 miles, followed by rescue practice at a small gladed hill off of Old Jackson Road:

For the 2012 course (pictures here), on Saturday we toured up to the base of Huntington Ravine, then skied back down the Fire Road, reapplied skins to head up to the base of Tuckerman Ravine, then skied back down the Little Headwall and Sherburne to arrive at PNVC around 4:00, where we practiced rescue until around 5:00:

Then for Sunday in 2012, we toured up to the base of Gulf of Slides #1/Main, skied down the GoS trail to cut across on the Graham connector, back up to the base of Tuckerman Ravine, then once again skied back down the Little Headwall and Sherburne to arrive at PNVC for more rescue practice:
