Quantcast

Squamish Scrambler

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!
  • Bring the family as far as Red Heather, a 10km return snowshoe hike. The kids can even use a sled on the way down!
  • Spectacular views of The Tantalus Range, Howe Sound, Sky Pilot, and even Vancouver Island a clear day!
  • 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.

When and Where?

  • TBD February 2009
  • Assemble at the new North Shore Athletics in Squamish by 8:30am to car pool to event start in Garibaldi Park/Diamond Head.
  • See agenda for details on how to get there and course description

How Much?

  • Free for Club Fat Ass members (click here for current membership fees and benefits)
  • To keep hassles on the morning of the run to a minimum and allow the host to participate as well we ask to please sign up for both, the club membership and the event online and in advance.
