Participants would be joining a group of joint ACC /BCMC members for a helicopter into camp 1, near Marrow Peak and walk out to cars at Glacier View staging area on final day. Cost of helicopter approx $415. Backpacking trip with 4 camps to maximize peak bagging approx 10 peaks.
Participants need to have a vehicle suitable either 4wd or AWD with high clearance for the 55 km drive on Bridge River FSR off the Hurley. Meeting place is Glacier View staging area on August 3rd for helicopter transport in on Aug 4th.
Trip involves a short glacier crossing. Mandatory equipment- ice axe, crampons, harness, helmet, few prussiks and carabiners.
There is a possibility that the helicopter may be called away for forest fire fighting , so there is a plan B in place, going in from Glacier View staging area, doing a loop.
Map of route available.
