Description:

For those who want to get intimate with the forests of the North Shore:

Bushwhacking can range from a merry jaunt in the woods, to a full-contact wrestling match with stubborn branches. Normally this trip runs in the fall, but I am impatient (which may lead to soggy encounters with snow).

The plan as of May 23 is to meander to Holmden Peak in Mt Seymour Provincial Park with possible extentions to Theta and Coldwell peaks. Expect a full day of thrashing. If you are new to hiking, welcome! Bushwhacking will be a green gauntlet of tough-going trail but ultimately rewarding trail.

Committed list will open when I am confident we won't deal with icy conditions or deep snow.
