A beginner friendly (A1), 22km round trip along shoreline of Flores Island off the west coast of Vancouver Island. Friday, we will take 0615 HSB ferry to Nanaimo arriving at Tofino around 11. Then water taxi to Flores. Hiking ~mid-afternoon with just 11km to Cow Bay we should arrive around dinner time. On Saturday we will have an early-ish departure to be back at Tofino mid day. We will then head over to Peak 5040 (difficulty:B2) TH and hike up ~800m to camp near an ACC hut. Sunday morning we will attempt summit then hike down and return home on a late afternoon / early evening ferry, on standby.
Will have a WhatsApp chat so I need mobile number. Also probably need a second driver.
