Meet at Valleyview Carpool meetup at 8am. Drive to the Trailhead near Falkland. Estekwalan is a 7km Hard. I have a medium pace, but tend to be slow at times on longer hikes.
This hike is weather and wildfire dependent. I’ll watch the weather and fire conditions up to to the day before the hike. Check back here on the website for updates.
I have not done this hike before. But, I’m looking forward to the challenge!
I’ve set registration for 1 person per registration only. Everyone will need to register themselves or reach out to me if you need support registering, and I’ll register you.
Please bring your hiking essentials and a lunch. Poles are recommended for steep terrain.
I did this hike with Doug Smith a few years ago. Gloves were recommended for the steep downhill portion of the hike with long ropes to hang onto to help with the decent.
Sorry Darlene but I am cancelling. I just did a 2 day backpack and came down with a cold right before so I’m not feeling good enough to hike tomorrow. Sorry for the late notice. Mary
ok, my cold made me stupid… I thought this hike was tomorrow and just noticed that I cancelled the wrong hike…I meant to cancel tomorrow’s hike at Eagle Mountain. Sorry for the mix up, I just cancelled the correct one. Mary
You weren’t wrong. Sept 26th was supposed to be Estekwalan. But everyone cancelled so I have rescheduled it. Oct 3rd is still Eagle Mountain. You should be able to reregister for the new Estekwalan date of Oct 17th or I can rrgister you. Let me know.

Darlene,,, Ok,, after I wrote that last message, I thought I was losing it as I was so mixed up with the dates…yes, I was sure I had the 26th for Estekwalan. Thanks for confirming. 🙂
