Location

Participants

Plans

Everyone who intends to come, please indicate here whether you need or can offer a ride, and any time constraints.

Unfortunately 16:30 at Yaletown station is a bit too early for me to meet with the downtown group. Could I join Elbie and Robyn for the 19:00 at UBC group? Whereabouts at UBC would we be meeting? Also, I have the restriction that I have to be home that night, as in I can't participate in a camping hash, if that's still planned. -Srs0 15:10, 21 May 2010 (UTC)
Elbie can't attend, so I was going to go earlier, but don't want to leave anyone behind. What's the earliest you can go, srs0?

Vehicle 1 (Rhonda)

  • Rhonda and pi meet at waterfront station at 16:10
  • Travel via Canada line Skytrain to Yaletown station, near the car
  • Leaves downtown at 16:30
  • Contains: Rhonda, pi, Xore, Wade, one more?

Vehicle 2 (Robyn)

  • Leaves Vancouver 14:00. Time subject to negotiation. Will park at the first sign of ruggedness on the road, and walk the rest of the way.
  • Contains: Robyn, room for three others
  • If no other takers listed on the wiki by 13:30, and there is still a place in Rhonda's car, Robyn will join vehicle #1 and not bring her car.

Vehicle 3 (Yang)

  • Leaves Lougheed Town Center area around 17:15. Would preferably leave vehicle near entrance to logging road and hike the 4.5km or so to the point.
  • Contains: Yang, room for 4 others

Bring

  • Sturdy boots
  • Raingear
  • Flashlight
  • Celebratory items
  • Mugs (yangman will bring a camping stove, and ingredients for hot chocolate)
