Trip Description

It's a peakbagger classic of the area! The first 6km is along an FSR, so I propose bringing a bike to speed up the process. This will be a long day, so plan accordingly. Think water purification, sunscreen and bug mitigation. It is absolutely impossible to predict what the snow will be like, though we can make a pretty good guess by looking at it from Vancouver. I suggest microspikes. More gear might be suggested as the day gets a little closer. Pace will be moderate to casual, length is ~24km (roughly half is bikeable, I believe). I've never done this hike before, and I am always open to suggestions on modifications. Anyway, expect some views and good company. And its a North Shore ascent, so you can claim another Peakbagger objective.

Check out AllTrails (Capilano Mountain) for more info.

Meeting time and place (as directed on the side panel): I will likely be camping somewhere along the Sea to Sky, so Furry Creek will be the best meetup spot for me. 7AM, Sea View Drive, as close to the yellow gate on the Furry Downing FSR that you can manage. 

10 essentials, decent hiking footwear, don't forget your headlight.
