If I haven't done a trip with you in the last year, please tell me about your hiking experience/backcountry trips.
Will you be leaving the village at 8am? If not, what time are you planning to leave?

How to get to Garibaldi for dinner:
1. Leaving Whistler Village at 8am or when you wish to arrive/hike. Meet in front of the Longhorn or you can leave Whistler Village whenever you wish.
2. Hike up SInging Pass to KC Hut at your own pace. If you wish to hike using Musical Bumps, you're welcome to do this as well when the gondola opens.
3. Arrive at Kees and Claire Hut
4. Do as you please - nap, hike to Whirlwind, take photos in the wild or whatever your heart desires.
5. Team dinner - share food and have a great evening!
6. Leave the hut the following morning around 9-10am. I will be hiking down using Singing Pass. You can join me or use Musical Bumps.
This trip is open to all levels. However, you're required to be self-sufficient. You understand what is needed to go on an overnight hut trip, have the gear and can navigate using a map to the hut. I will be leaving Whistler Village for 8am and hiking at a moderate pace (4 hours to hut). The reason I'm leaving at 8am is I don't do well in the heat / sun. In addition, I'm the custodian at KC Hut and will be doing some chores at the hut.
You're welcome to join me or depart whenever you please. I suggest all trip participants arrive at the hut no later than 5pm. We don't need to hike together. People are welcome to form mini-groups or hike solo. Singing Pass is pretty straightforward.
Hut reservations: after you have been accepted into the trip please make your own reservation for your bed in the hut. https://spearheadhuts.org/reservations
