Old Trip
This is the sign up and organization page for an old trip. It already happened. Please do not sign up for it.

Synopsis

This is great, fairly seldom traveled trail just up the Squamish Valley. It's starts at fairly low elevation, and doesn't reach any prominent peak, yet still provides beautiful views of the valley and of the falls themselves. The trail is attractive, and mostly forested along the way.

We need people to drive. So, the number of people that can come is dependent on the amount of rides we can provide collectively for each other.

  • Why is this Beginner Friendly? - I intend this trip for people who have some hiking experience and are comfortable in steep hiking/moderate scrambling situations. It might be steep/challenging. See the VOC definition of beginner friendly here.

My contact info is here.

Skills Required

A moderate level of hiking experience and a reasonable level of fitness would be good.

Trip Meeting

TBA. The pre-trip meeting will be on Thursday, October 7 at 5 pm. This meeting will be mainly for sorting out how we will all get ourselves there, and a basic of hiking chit-chat, for those of us that are less experienced.

Gear Required

It's important that you have a good pair of hiking boots. We will have a lunch break at the top, and bringing food for sharing (potluck style) is highly encouraged.
