Hi Parents.

On Monday September 23 we have our first full-day hike to Flatiron Peak in the Coquihalla. This is an 11km round trip hike with 690 metres of elevation. Departure is 7:30 AM and return is 5:00 PM. Please have your student at school by 7:15. We will be continuing our science unit on BC ecology and geography on the trip. We also will be using our camp stoves in a true alpine setting.


Students must be prepared for all types of weather. We go rain our shine.
Students must bring:
  • hiking boots
  • base layers
  • a warm insulation layer top (fleece or a soft puffy synthetic)
  • full rain gear
  • hat
  • Sun protection
  • morning snack, lunch, afternoon snack. (NO JUNKFOOD), min 1L of water (school provided bottles)
  • cup, spoon, and hot drink powder (hot chocolate, tea, or gatorade/juice crystals)
  • No Cotton

Thanks

Chris and Jason
