Brew Hut Adventure
When
This trip will happen the weekend of October 3rd-4th. Our departure time is still to be determined, but expect it to be fairly early on Saturday morning. We will be back in Vancouver in the evening on Sunday.
Where
We will be going up to one of our four huts: the Brew Hut. It is roughly located across the Sea to sky highway form the popular Garibaldi Lake trail. Absolutely stunning views are guaranteed, without the immensly high human traffic of Garibaldi.
Who
You. Everyone is welcome. The trip is begginer friendly, which means that even if you have no prior outdoor experience, we will help you in every way so that you reach the destination and have a good time. In fact, this trip is intended as an introductory trip for new members of the club. You will have the chance to encounter other new and keen members and to complete a Workhike so that you can borrow gear for future trips.
Workhike
Taking care of the huts is a lot work that could not be accomplished without you, the members of the club. Although if you wanted to come just for, you are more than welcome to, the purpose of this trip is to do some maintenance work on the hut in order to prepare it for the winter. One of the things that has to get done is the preparation of firewood for the hut stove. It will need to get hauled from the location of the old hut. Potentially, some could get chopped as well. Another important undertaking is the relocation fo the outhouse, which we can try to do if we have the time.
