An out and back day hike to a beautiful glacial lake.

The Bugaboos! A stunning location with large granite spires, expansive glaciers, and awesome scrambling, mountaineering, and climbing objectives. But be warned, the trail to camp is steep with ladders involved. There are a limited number of scrambles in the area and that is what we will likely be focusing on this trip. For group management and safety, you should be familiar with outdoor rock climbing if you are interested in doing any objectives in the area, be prepared with a competent partner, and some ideas as to the objectives you want to complete in the area. There may be opportunities to team up on objectives if you don't have a partner or are less skilled, but we cannot guarantee that. There really is only one class 3 (hiking, low scramble) objective in the area so keep in mind if you come without a partner and gear you may only be able to do this and relax in the fantastic scenery.

This trip takes you to some seriously cool mountains in BC. We hike a lot and climb some big peaks with awesome views, especially Gimli and Lucifer—they're high and really pointy. The lakes are super pretty too, like, clear blue water and nice spots to chill. It’s kind of hard sometimes but totally worth it if you like nature and being away from everything.

The funnest trip of the year…

The objective of the crotch pot trip is to hike far, hike fast, with minimal gear. All too often we are lulled into a sense of comfort in the backcountry with mini projectors, tents, sleeping bags, comfy air-filled sleeping mats, and warm rehydrated meals. We want to challenge that. The following guidelines must be adhered to for your inclusion on the trip:

Absolutely No:

• Stoves
• Sleeping bags (emergency bivy's acceptable)
• Sleeping mats
• Tents
• Cooking with a flame, including fire. Food may only be warmed using natural heat 
  • A device with a good illustration on how this is achieved can be found here: Gossamer Gear - The Crotch Pot – Geartrade

Your gear must weigh no more than 7lbs from the parking lot.

• Includes layers such as jackets, rain pants, etc.
• Excludes “worn weight” consisting of one pair of pants, socks, shoes, and one tee shirt, phone, hat, and sunglasses.
• Do not be silly and start with water. We are beside a stream much of the way and have ample opportunities to “camel up” and stay hydrated.

All gear, including backpack must fit inside a standard 15L (14.6"x11.4"x6.8") box at the trailhead. Such a box will be available the night before and at the trailhead for measurement.

Trip organizers reserve the right to prohibit any item that, in their sole discretion, is determined to be inconsistent with the purpose or ethos of the trip. If you are unsure of an item you wish to bring, please ask.
