Itinerary:

After a brief introduction at the trailhead we will begin the hike and shortly after that we will pass by the Sheep River Falls. The pace will be a relaxed one with stops for photos, water and breather breaks. Lunch will be at the top of Mount Hoffman. The trail has been recently upgraded and, for the most part, quite a soft footing trail through spruce and pine forests. Given that it will be a sunny day there will be great views at the top.

Required Items to Bring:
BEAR SPRAY, snacks and lunch, spikes as there maybe a short bit of light snow and ice. See the Club guidelines for more details.

Recommended Items to Bring:
Use our Event Checklists to make sure you have everything you need.
CAMERA, a proper windbreaker as it is always windy at the top.
