Pemby Icecap

[Janus]

Hi Guys,
I got two friends coming to visit me from France for the last week of November.
We want to spend a week trip skiing/sledding. Sled is more for access than fooling around as we are all very experienced backcountry skiers and mountaineers but compete noobs on sleds lol.
We are really tempted going checking out the pemby icecap.
Is that a reasonable endeavor at that time of the year?
We already had couples big storn and another one is coming next week.
There is going to be plenty of snow in the alpine, but is that enough to cross the flats with sleds? I am worried about crevasses.
If you have suggestion for other spots pm me if you don't want to showcase the secrets on the web
Thanks

I wouldn't.
Besides crevasses there's also a lake at the foot of the glacier on the way in, as well as tons of rocks this early.
I'd maybe consider a ski tour on the Duffy instead. You can ride your sled up a few fsr's up there and then hike.

Yeah, I was thinking at the duffy too.
There is a lot a cool cabins. A little less friendly perhaps for shuttling with the sleds.
We ll have to hike, damn it !
