Crystal River Crew Nails Front Pointing in Florida City Heat

What a great day out, couldn't ask for more action! Our group headed out from Crystal River at 10:45 am this June morning, ready to tackle some serious snow sports adventure down in Florida City. The weather started partly cloudy, which was perfect for getting the crew warmed up before the afternoon rain rolled in. It's always interesting working the backcountry when y'all are dealing with Florida's unpredictable weather patterns, but that's what makes these trips memorable.

Once the stage was set, we focused on front pointing and ice axe self-arrest techniques. The crew picked up dry tooling pretty quickly once we got into the rhythm of things.

This Snow Sports Trip through our diveshop really delivers for groups looking to try something different in Florida. Having four folks out there today was ideal since we can take up to six people on these adventures, giving everyone plenty of room to work on their skills. June might seem like an odd time for snow sports down by the glades, but Florida City offers some unique opportunities that most people don't know about. Whether y'all are first-timers wanting to learn the basics or seasoned adventurers looking for something new, this trip package works well for different skill levels. The afternoon rain actually added an extra challenge that the crew handled like pros. If you're thinking about booking one of these snow sports adventures, don't let the Florida location fool you - we've got the setup to make it happen year-round.
