Date

General Information

Wedgemount Lake

The plan is to leave Vancouver early saturday morning and hike to the Lake, where we will camp. Although there is a hut, it only fits 6 people and is open on a first-come-first serve basis, so our best bet will be to plan on tenting. The trail is short, but steep with a possible section of scramble near the top, so if you have a decent level of fitness you'll probably have lots of fun. Once we get to the lake, there will probably be plenty of time to explore the area and/or hang out at the hut. I don't have a car, so if you're planning on going and do have a car, please sign up under drivers! I've never been to the area but from everything I've heard or read it is supposed to be beautiful so it should make for a sweet trip and nice break from school!  :) http://www.trailpeak.com/trail-Wedgemount-Lake-Garibaldi-Provincial-Park-near-Whistler-BC-504

How much does it cost?

Expect to pay your driver some money for gas, the amount depends on the driver.
