Hi I don't think I've posted before but many of you know me. Just wondering if there is an expedition planned for Mt. Cheam. I would like to get involved if there is. See you in the field Len Jellicoe Surrey

Hi Len There is a hike on July 21 to Cheam for Canadas Park's Day. We're meeting at 7:00 at Thompson Park and heading up fairly soon after 7:00 as I want to get a good start. I hope you can make it Len! Those needing a ride in a clearance (height, not value! ) truck I dont think there's currently room in the trucks that I know are going. This might be a good time to reopen discussion to make sure all who are coming still are. Im not trying to give up your seats though! I just made it last weekend to the parking lot. Short trucks make it but longboxes are getting beat up. I got an update on the road and it supposed to be complete by Saturday (14th). Until I look at it, I wont know if repairs will mean a gentler road for perhaps 2wd vehicles. But from the money and time dedicated to repairs it looks like they'll only be focusing on the washouts.

Thanks Gord. Dian wants to come also so put us both on the waiting list. If we have to, we will rent a 4x4 and if anyone else needs a ride they can chip in for the cost. We did this a few years ago and it was about 60-$70 including gas so it would be nice to share it with someone. i suppose I could advertise on BCVANBIRDS but will wait until the last week in case someone comes forward with a vehicle. Keep in touch. See you in the field Len
