Hiking the HSCT in two days, starting at Cypress Bowl on Saturday morning and arriving to Porteau Cove on Sunday afternoon. We will hike 14.5km on Saturday and stay the night at Magnesia Meadows. On Sunday we will hike another 14.5km to complete the trail.
If the group is feeling in good shape and conditions are right, I would like to make a detour to get to the top of Brunswick Mountain, but we will make that decision as a group on the spot.
In total we will be covering at least 29km over two days and the trail will very likely still be covered in snow. Good level of fitness and previous backpacking experience is needed.
We will also need to bring at least two cars. One to leave at Cypress bowl and another at Porteau Cove.
We will be traversing steep snow-covered slopes so bring an ice axe is required for safety.
