[pct-l] A thru hike and a snow skills weekend

[ned at mountaineducation.org]

Just to let everybody know that we will be teaching two more Snow Skills Courses during June:

- 4-day weekend, Intermediate Snow Skills Course (SIC-1) June 17-20, 2011 along the PCT through Desolation Wilderness http://postholer.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=3568#3568

- 18-day "thru hike" of the 165-mile Tahoe Rim Trail (SAC-5), June 10-27, 2011
http://postholer.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1331 This trip, or even a part of it, would be a great test-run for any aspiring PCT thru hiker who wants to both practice his/her snow skills and be out on the trail for a few weeks with resupply logistics! This event is being watched by the media in order to promote the trail and the Tahoe Rim Trail Association. http://www.tahoerimtrail.org/

(If all the details are not up at Postholer when you go to look, we'll be writing it all up tonight!)
