The Takhini Valley is glowing gold with fall colours at this time of year and the climb up Stony Creek provides prime viewing. We’ll follow the ATV trail, looking for wildlife and taking in the views. At the treeline, there’s a great place to have lunch before the final push to the summit. If there's time, we’ll walk further on the ridge and look for Collared Pika and Hoary Marmots.
This is a long day but oh-so-worth it. Wear good hiking boots and bring warm layers (particularly for the top) and plenty of food and water. If you don't want to hike all the way to the top, you’re welcome to join us at the start and turn around whenever you would like. Below the alpine, the trail is straightforward.
This event involves a 124 km (return) drive.

Time: 9 am to 6 pm
