Relaxed pace Backpacking Trip to Ribbon Falls, Ribbon and Lillian Lakes - 3 nts

This is a challenging 3 night backpacking trip leaving from the Ribbon Creek Trailhead and ending up in the Galatea Lakes Trailhead parking lot. We will hike together as a close group at a relaxed pace to enjoy nature. We will need to have cars at both locations to move the group back and forth.

Once you are accepted on the trip, you will have to book your own campsite and send me a screenshot of your permit.

I did this trip last year and loved it, so I'd like to do it again. On Sunday, we will hike to Ribbon Falls Campground. On Monday, we have a short day and will hike to Ribbon Lake Campground. We must go through a section with metal rebar ladders and chains in the rockface. We will go slow, but you must be comfortable doing this section with a full backpack. On Tuesday, we will hike through Guinn's Pass to the Lillian Lake Campground. Optional late afternoon hike to see the Galatea Lakes. On Wednesday morning, we'll hike down Galatea trail to the cars and carpool back to the Ribbon Creek starting point.

Please no side or partial trips or shadow bookings (not getting accepted on the trip, but booking the same nights at the campground).

Everyone must have their own gear, have backpacking experience, and agree to follow all Provincial Parks and Slow and Steady regulations, including leave no trace.

There is a waitlist for this event. To be accepted you must agree to follow the rules and have hiked with me at least twice before (so I know if you are a good fit with the group). Once you are accepted on the trip, you will need to book your own campsite and send me a screenshot of your permit.ibis

Must have positive attitude and answer the questions. Passive Aggressive behaviour not tolerated. I know I am being strict on the rules, but unfortunately this bbis based on negative past experiences organizing these trips. The point is for everyone to have fun and enjoy nature, we don't need any unnecessary drama or stress. I hope you understand.

PLEASE DON'T BOOK YOUR SITE UNTIL YOU HAVE BEEN ACCEPTED OFF THE WAITLIST.
