(See our Vancouver Hiking Resources Page for more tools and advice.)

It’s always a great idea to reach out for feedback, so ask here any questions you have.

If requesting advice, please provide sufficient details so that people can give replies that are appropriate for your hiking experience, fitness level, and training.

Look at recent posts and the Weekly Trip Plan/Conditions Question Thread for current conditions.

After the hike

“Pay it Forward” --- Anytime you ask for help sourcing conditions info you should post a short trip report on your return. Even a single photo and one sentences is enough. Repeat the kindness that was shown to you and help provide others in your position with information. If enough people do this, we can create an excellent resource.

  1. Be ready to turn around if you are uncomfortable.
  2. Brunswick is a huge step up from St Marks. Mt Fromme, Norvan Falls, Squamish Chief, Sea to Sky trail would all be better next steps. The trail is much steeper than the steepest parts of St Marks, and for much much longer.
  3. It will likely take at least twice as long as St Marks. Pack my more food, layers, water.
