Do you like hiking, views, fun? Then this is the trip for you!
On the second weekend of June 2012 I went on my first ever hike with the VOC. Since then I've been on trips in the BC mountains most weekends, learning to ski and climb (sort of) in the process. To mark this ten year anniversary I want to go back to where it all started, a hike up mount Price. Mount Price is on the banks of lake Garibaldi and is certainly a peak worth standing atop. It will be a long day to go up and down, but not technically challenging; there aren't any cliffs to fall off of or the likes. On that hike ten years ago, because I'm dumb, I rented a pair of plastic mountaineering boots one size too small. I don't recommend anything about this choice...
Because overnight trips are more fun than day trips, lets camp up near Squamish at Check Canyon or wherever the cool kids camp before climbing now. We can then go climb on the Sunday. I'm a terrible climber so don't worry if you are too, or are new to it entirely (though let me know if this is the case). We can have a chill day somewhere with the easiest routes I can track down. Those who like their climbing less chill can hopefully find a car group of like-minded people. Something will work out.
If you are lacking in any gear, be it hiking, climbing, camping, send me a message and we can work something out. There is always enough gear lining someones cupboard.
So come one, come all!
