drjackrabbits@gmail.com Trip Report - Wells Gray March 11-16
The last ski trip
of the year took
place from
March 11-16 at
Wells Gray park.
We flew in to
Discovery cabin
for 6 great days
of skiing.
Conditions were
a bit of a
blizzard, so we
were confined to
the trees due to
avalanche
hazard much of
the time. But that
didn't stop us
from having
some great tree
skiing with fabulous powder conditions. Excellent
food and company rounded out a great trip. Start
thinking of where you'd like to go for ski trips next
year and send us your ideas.
Trip Report - McNair Cabin March 3-4
Some were scared of the rain, others afraid of
the long trek. Even those who we thought were
tough were bailing on the trip, with excuses that
none of us believed. The seven who made it to
the trailhead were brave, or maybe just foolish.
We battled the driving rain, and it was uphill both
ways. The only solace was that the clouds saved
our eyes from the blinding sun. The Chapman
Creek bridge was an easy crossing, that is if you all think tiptoeing a tight rope
made of avalanches is easy. We all made it to the cabin, when the real
challenge began: a cuthroat game of Settlers of Catan which revealed the true
personalities of our ragged band. The next day, two or three glorious turns
were had, with epic face shots of pure rain. We raced down the luge track to
the parking lot, only realising later that we were all winners. The prize? Wet
clothes, blisters, and beer. (from Will)

25th Anniversary Celebrations
Presidentʼs message
Greetings to all club members,
As you might have heard, this year marks the 25th anniversary of the
construction of the Tetrahedron Cabins & Ski Trails. All four cabins (Bachelor,
McNair, Edwards & Steele) were constructed in a six month flurry of activity
during the summer and fall of 1987, and years later the cabins and trails are
well used and remain as jewels in the backcountry of the Sunshine Coast. The
TOC continues to work in partnership with many individuals, businesses and
government in order to fulfill our role as stewards of the cabins and trails in
Tetrahedron Provincial Park, but sometimes we just need to celebrate – havea-party and toot our horn. To commemorate this milestone, and to recognize all
the volunteers, local businesses and support from various levels of
government, we have struck a committee to plan a number of events. We are
planning to have open houses at the cabins, a recognition ceremony and photo
& memorabilia display followed by a buffet dinner & dance. We will also be
running historical interest articles in the local papers. Please check for
announcements.
This is all about celebrating and recognition, but I am also asking you - the
membership - for any thoughts they may have on the future of the TOC – what
is our mandate and mission, what will we look like down the road? Please feel
free to approach any of your executive on this topic – weʼd love to hear your
thoughts.
Thanks and regards,
Reynold Schmidt
