yo -- anyone skiing at McGill should check out the McGill Snowboard Club (not only boarders...) who run weekend trips to local mountains. Cheap -- you get a good bus & discount passes (and rentals if need be). Also the McGill Outdoor Club which does a few bus trips a year but also more relaxed car trips and lots of trekking / backcountry (or close to it, in the 'Dacks), iceclimbing, that sort of thing. Between the two clubs you should be set. I'd recommend the MOC -- expand yr skills, learn how to climb--!
