EQUIPMENT REQUIRED

So if you are thinking of coming and wondering what equipment you will need here goes
- Skis or Split Board
- Skins
- Boots
- Poles
- Gloves
- Light Weight Shell Jacket
- Avalanche Transceiver
- Shovel
- Probe
- Pack (and you need to be able to carry your skis or board on this)

Some water and food would be very handy, at the very least for after the race. I also think a warm jacket for afterwards is a must. On the basis you might do the race then have a bite to eat prior to some laps on the tows or elsewhere in the afternoon it is amazing how quickly you cool down. If you get too cold it could ruin your afternoon.
