Trip Description

The HBC Trail is 74km from Peers Creek Trailhead (10km East of Hope) to Tulameen River Trailhead (3km west of Tulameen.  See elevation profile, camp distances, and maps in link http://hopemountain.org/trails/hbc-heritage-trail/ Due to the distance between trailheads, we will need one group to start at Peers Creek and one group to start at Tulameen River and meet halfway to exchange car keys.  Plan is to begin Monday Aug 13th and finish Saturday Aug 18th.  Saturday we would meet at Home Restaurant in Hope for dinner and car exchange.  To do the trip in 6 days will require hiking between 10 to 17 km/day.  If one group wants to do it faster or slower, then that is OK, as start times are flexible, as long as we coordinate a camp meeting day (for keys) and the Saturday Aug 18th meeting (for dinner/cars).  I will be bringing my dog.  I have not done this trip before.  Topo maps are 92H6, 92H7, 92H10, 92H11. Myself, Nik, and Kim would like to start at Tulameen.
