Squamish Scrambler
By Turtlepace on January 19, 2007 - 3:36pm
What?
- A snowshoe hike/run up to Red Heather Cabin (10km), or Elfin Lakes Cabin (22km) in beautiful Squamish, B.C.
- Thanks to the Yeti Snowshoe Series, snowshoe rental is now available
through the Event Host. A pair of Atlas Dual-Tracs (best running
snowshoe on the market) will cost but $10.00 for the day. Must book in
advance when you register! - Draw prizes include an entry to one
of the Yeti snowshoe races, an annual subscription to TrailRunner
magazine, and swag from North Shore Athletics. - Bring the family as far as Red Heather, a 10km return snowshoe hike.
- Possibility of continuing up towards Little Diamond Head, depending on conditions and motivation.
- Spectacular views of The Tantalus Range, Howe Sound and Sky Pilot.
- Out and back route allows for easy turn around due to unforeseen circumstances.
- The
road up to the trailhead is always at the mercy of mother nature.
Chains are highly recommended. Anyone with a 4x4 is asked to bring it
along and expect to be one of the car pool vehicles. Thanks in advance
on this one.
