Description

This is the third of five "small group" hikes from March through to June, progressively increasing in both length and total ascent. We'll start with a 19 km/450 meter ascent hike, progressing to 25 km with up to approximately 1000 meters of ascent over the 4 month period. By its nature, these hikes will suit experienced hikers who want to up their game.   In this hike, we'll shuttle to the BTC parking area on the east side of 1st line EHS  and hike back to our meet point,  up  and out of Hockley Valley.  Icers may be required due to steep icy sections.  Have them available  just in case.
