VOC Longhike Oct. 11-12

Post by swebster » Wed Sep 17, 2008 10:16 am

The Varsity Outdoor Club will be running its annual rock climbing instructional course on Oct. 11 and 12 this year (mostly the 11th) in Squamish. There will be around 100 participants distributed throughout the various climbing areas. There shouldn't really me any more people in one particular area than on a regular busy weekend, but maybe more than you'd expect for October so this is just a heads up.

None of us are staying at any campgrounds, at least not on Saturday night. By Sunday night the event is over and I don't know what people will do. Possibly some will stick around for Monday, but I wouldn't expect any enormous numbers.

I doubt anyone will be at chek.

Most people will likely be in the Smoke Bluffs or at Murrin.
