 Event Description:   

I have been up this Peak twice using different Ascent routes.

Looking for a new Route using a rocky Ridge .

I am planning to leave Chilliwack around 4:30 AM and stopping at Tim Horten's in Merritt before proceeding to the planned Starting Point below the Peak. 

Anyone wanting to join me needs to bring their own Transportation , as I will visit a friend in Merritt after the Hike.

Hike Date is only tentatively planned for March 01st,2025. The exact date is Weather dependent . Looking for a nice sunshiny day and good Road conditions. Aiming for anywhere between middle of February to Middle of March.

The views are stunning on a sunny day, as you can see on the Photos below.

It is a cheeky little Scramble Mountain . Nice open Terrain .I am over 60 now and prefer not to race anymore. But I do like to explore and to move at a steady and moderate pace .

The Fun and Joy aspect has become higher for me now than Speed ...
