Prerequisites
Very comfortable resort XC skiing and preferably some BC XC experience. Good fitness to ski 12 miles.

We will be backcountry cross-country skiing up to Zealand Rd towards Zealand Hut and Zealand Falls. The route is 3.5 miles down the mostly flat unplowed Zealand Rd, and then an additional 2.5 miles up Zealand trail to hopefully reach Zealand Hut and Zealand Falls.

This trip is well-suited for participants with significant resort cross-country skiing experience and preferably some backcountry cross-country experience. Good fitness is important to ski ~12 miles with ~1000 ft elevation gain.
