Description:
This is a beginner friendly daytrip to Wedgemount Lake. Wedgemount Lake is located just north of Whistler, and is found in Garibaldi Provincial Park. It is a 14km round trip, with approx. 1220 m of elevation gain. It has a nice view of Wedge Mountain (if its not overcast and raining too strong) which looks pretty cool! While this is a beginner friendly trip, meaning it is open to new members and we will stick together as a group, it will be approx. 5-8 hours hiking and 2 hours of driving each way, so expect a FULL day. Find more information on the trail route here.
The pretrip meeting will be this Friday at 6:30 pm in the clubroom. Please come especially if you are new to the club.
Note: This trip will happen rain or shine. Therefore, keep your eyes peeled on the weather forecast as well prepare appropriate clothing for rain. I dont think it will pour, but currently (a week in advance) it calls for rain. However, I will say that is a lot of time for things to change. See VOC packing list for day-trips here
