Trip Description

24km, 1200m gain, up to 8hrs. Pace average or a bit above average.

From the beta I have, it seems like the trees will be tight enough and the slope mellow enough on the Zupjok ascent to not be too concerned about the special avy bulletin but we will assess as we go of course. A long break on the summit will be the objective.

Ski crampons required, or else hard boots and be willing to bootpack if need be. The ascent thru the trees will likely be icey. Bring sunscreen!

Trip is dependent on someone having a suitable vehicle as mine isn't suitable at the moment. Max participants depends on the vehicle. Or if no other vehicles are available, I can take one other person and we can carpool with some ppl in chilliwack.

We'll plan to leave East Van by 6 and can arrange carpooling. Plan is to be at the parking lot for 8:15am
