The tour is described in my book Ski Touring in California. I have guided the High Route over 30 times. Storm, avalanche, drought and illness have turned us back or altered the route six times. I have been combining regular clients with my AVE 3 guides course participants. At times I will also take along porters to keep client pack weight down.
Clients typically carry their personal gear, most of their own lunches and a dinner.
It is worth the effort to keep packs as light as possible. Study the equipment lists and contact us if you have any questions. High Route campsites will vary. We try to locate them for maximum ski runs and views. Each tour is designed for a rest day, so we will often have several short days to maximize good skiing conditions.
