Badger – Two Medicine Ski
Northwest Montana MTREGISTRATION OPEN
NEAREST TOWN: EAST GLACIER | DIFFICULTY: STRENUOUS
Join the Glacier-Two Medicine Alliance and Wild Montana for a backcountry ski adventure in the Badger-Two Medicine. We plan to ski a loop from the Marias Pass parking area through the Pike Creek drainage, with the exact route dependent on snow conditions. The route will include some moderate grade ascents and descents, with great views of the surrounding mountains. We'll look for wildlife tracks, especially wolverine, learn a bit about winter ecology, and discuss current challenges related to the management and long-term protection of this wild and sacred place. Participants should be intermediate to advanced skiers and must provide their own gear. Light backcountry touring skis with metal edges are recommended.
