Mount Bishop is one of many beautiful peaks in Vancouver's north shore. The trailhead is 10km from the nearest road and lies at the end of the Seymour demonstration forest. This makes it a perfect peak for a self-propelled trip. Especially as the ride through the demonstration is one of the best in Vancouver.

There are multiple lakes and rivers along the way so we will have plenty of dips to add to the Summer Skinny Dip Challenge.

The ride is ~80km with ~1000m elevation (round trip) and the hike is ~8km with ~1200m elevation. That is to say, this is not an easy trip. It is however (in my opinion) one of the best day-trips in Vancouver and a great opportunity to challenge yourself.

We'll meet nearish to UBC and leave around 8 am, the trip will probably take most of the day. I'll go over the details at the pre-trip

 

Let me know if you have any questions!
