Crown Mountain
2013-March-29

TRIP IS FULL. WAITING LIST AVAILABLE.

Difficulty: SUB-TECHNICAL FULL-DAY TRIP
* Estimated Time: 11hrs

* Believe it or not, but some people (guess who they are?!) have asked me to organize this trip, so it has now been posted.
* Apology if not everyone gets to go on this one: your safety has always been and will always remain our #1 priority (if you have never been to mt. Harvey or Brunswick in winter OR you have never met/hiked with organizer you most likely will need to skip this one )


:!: For your safety group size is limited.

Details
An epic trail to hike, with beautiful forests, rugged cliffs to admire, and boulder fields to negotiate. All topped off with some fine summit views. A real wilderness experience close to the city.

As with all North Shore Trails, it becomes far more difficult in winter, with a number of potentially dangerous traverses and avalanche hazards in certain conditions. Be knowledgeable and prepared: ice axe, crampons would be mandatory and more gear is sometimes required.

Mandatory Gear: crampons with front points, regular ice ax, headlamp, extra emergency dry layer, medical kit, helmet, climbing harness

Safety Levels
POP (probability of precipitation) < 40%
Avalanche Danger: Moderate
Weather: http://www.weatheroffice.gc.ca/city/pages/bc-74_metric_e.html
Avalanche Forecast: http://goo.gl/JxJnR

I understand it's full now. Can I join you folks for a half trip? I am very interested in the trail but will skip the part which need crampons. I have micro spike tho and can be the driver.

Gloria

Interested, would like to join.

行者无疆, you are welcome! However, I can only take you as far as Little Goat Mtn. Beyond that lays steep difficult confusing terrain. I myself won't dare go there on my own. Also, we start early, draft trailhead time is 05:45a.m., this is to avoid climbing warm snow. Please let me know what you say.  8)

Doctor, that's all good. I will hike to Little Goat Mountain area and then either wait for you folks come back, or just go back on my own. Does anyone needs carpool? I will drive from Vancouver south to Grouse Mountain in the morning.

Gloria

Thanks for reminding me. However, after reading carefully the detail of the requirement, I found myself not equiped well for this trip in this season. Please drop me from the waiting list. I look forward to join you to climb this mountain in a warmer time. Thanks -- David
