Elsay Peak... and a few more

 

Peaks: DEP, SEY, RUN, ELS*

I had to be in Saskatoon for work on Saturday, and since there are no flights out of Saskatoon after 5pm, I woke up at 4:30am Saskatoon time to board an early morning flight.  I got back to Vancouver just after 8 and Maddy picked me up from the Skytrain with running stuff.  After a quick stop at Matchstick for MORE coffee (I still needed more after that) we were off to Deep Cove.

Maddy dropped me off so I could get the water bag, and she continued on up to the Deep Cove look out on Seymour.  I started around 10am.

they bluff with scorn Suicide remarks are torn

Five short companions and I conquered Suicide Bluffs, the newest addition to the Bagger Challenge.

Although not marked on official Mt Seymour trailposts, and cautioned on various maps as an "undeveloped route", the route is easy to find.

Sunshine In September coming up soon!

The holiday weekend is almost here, so it's time to plan for Sunshine in September.

I hope you will join us for this fantastic 21 or 24k run on the trails from Langdale Ferry Terminal. A warning though - with this event having been cancelled last year, it's been a couple of years since i've been on these trails. Expect the directions to be out of date and to get lost! But don't worry - you can't go too far off track.

Given the ferry schedule, this year's event will start Sunday, September 2, at 10:30am from the Langdale Terminal. This means anyone coming over on the ferry will need to be on the 9:40 sailing from Horseshoe Bay.

Goal is to ship you back on the 2:15pm sailing from Langdale, getting you back to HB at 3pm.

I will leave it to you to carpool amongst yourselves.

As always, I will have the car at Langdale and you can leave dry clothes etc in the car for the return trip. Wheatberries is still in the ferry terminal and I'll have baked goods to enjoy after the run.

Hope you can make it and please let me know if you are coming!
