General Information

This is a day trip hike up Coliseum Mountain in Lynn Canyon Park, which is accessible by translink so it is a great trip if you don't have a car! Also great if you've got too many midterms and papers to justify spending an entire weekend playing (this is me). If you're ambitious it is also possible to bike to the park entrance (Headwaters), but I can't join as I do not have a bike at the moment :( Most of the hike is through the forest, which is nice because if it rains (which it probably will) there will be lots of beautiful mist. Don't let the fact that the park is accessible by bus scare you off...the trail up Coliseum mountain is not frequented and is definitely far from a typical walking path. Round trip is about 22 km and 1200 m elevation gain there's lots of fun, squishy mud so wear good boots and gaiters!

Transportation

Translink accessible (or you can bike) ...link to bus route from UBC to come...

How much does it cost?

probably nothing! (unless you drive)

What to bring

Essentials

   * water bottle (at least 1L, 2L is better)
   * Clothes to hike in and stay warm and dry. Make sure you bring rain gear since it might rain!  (Gaiters are good)  

      (Take a look at http://www.ubc-voc.com/wiki/Gear_lists#hiking_trip)
   * Lunch and snacks x1 

• Headlamp because there's a good chance we'll be hiking the last bit out in the dark
