July 18st - 19rd, 2009

Pre-trip meeting

TBD (depending on numbers signed up for trip)

FAQ

What is it?

A beginner friendly trip to Mt. Price. We will hike up to Battleship Island campground on Garibaldi Lake on Saturday and attack the summit on Sunday morning, from where you can get good views of Table Mountain (where you can dream that maybe one day you can climb it...). Mt Price is a dormant volcanoe on the west side of Garibaldi lake.

When is it?

It will be held on Saturday July 18th and 19th. We will drive up Saturday morning and leave Sunday evening.

Is it for me/you?

It is an easy scramble to the top of Mount Price and the trek to Battleship Island campground is not difficult so as long as you are keen you should be able to make it up.

Drive

Approach

Follow the Barrier trail to Garibaldi lake then south toward Mt Price, climb the NW ridge to the col between Clinker and Price.
