THE PLAN
We will be going up the Garibaldi Lake in Garibaldi Park for an overnight trip. We will set up camp at Taylor Meadows, which is 7.5 km from the trail head with 900 meters elevation gain. This trip is "beginner friendly" but there is elevation gain. The trail is well made with lots of switch backs but it is a steady climb most of the way. No experience is needed, but proper gear and a general level of fitness will make your life easier!
- There are various day hikes around the area and as a group we can decide what we would like to do. I hope to do Panorama Ridge and Black Tusk, one on saturday after setting up camp and one on sunday before we leave. Panorama Ridge is 5 km from the campsite with 630 meters elevation gain and beautiful views. The Black Tusk is 7 km from the campsite with 850 meters elevation and the option of a scramble to the top if you have a helmet!
DIRECTIONS/FEES
- Turn right off Hwy 99 just after you cross the Rubble Creek Bridge, 37 km north of Squamish or 19 km south of Whistler onto a paved road that leads 2.5 km to the Garibaldi Lake, Rubble Creek Trailhead parking lot.
- Each person must pay $5 overnight fee at the parking lot! Cash or credit card.
