Description:

Roland was recently musing on the message board that:

"There's something called reading break happening soon and there seems to be lots of pent-up demand for a hot spring trip, so I am kind of hoping that one will be created for reading break. The hot springs are ideal mid-week because they sometimes get kind of full during weekends."

I'm keen to go for a road trip and find some warm water, and as Roland said, reading week will be a great opportunity to avoid weekend crowds, so here is said trip...

//

The plan is to hit the road on Wednesday morning, spend the late afternoon/evening chilling (in the figurative sense only) at the springs, and then tent by the car*, before returning on Thursday.

We will be driving to Pemberton, and either heading northwest to Keyhole hot springs, or southeast to T'sek or Sloquet hot springs. It seems there was some snow on the road to Keyhole last year (See trip report here), but that it was otherwise accessible. Per Roland, there are rumours that T'sek is closed, but these could just be rumours.

So, no concrete destination yet, but going on a road trip and enjoying some pumpkin pie sounds pretty good. Sign up and let's get a plan together!

*Currently it's just Roland offering his vehicle and myself who will be driving it, so we have room for two or three others--depending on how much stuff we bring. If you have a vehicle and would be interested joining, please sign up! 

PS, if you need to borrow any gear/want a tent space, email me and we can get something sorted. :))
