Well it’s June 26th and my friend Shane and I decided to head up to the Lion’s.\u00a0 They are the more predominate landmarks overlooking\u00a0Vancouver from the North.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The trail started out dry enough…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n

But soon it turned into a muddy mess as we entered the runoff of the snow pack higher up.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We crossed a delapitated bridge that was nearly ready to fall apart.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Luckily supplies for a NEW bridge were already delivered.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/a><\/p>\n

We found deep snow and\u00a0fog\u00a0near the top of the ridge… The trail became much harder to follow at this point.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n

Winter still had a grip on the trees up here with sometimes a meter of snow still covering all vegitation.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\u00a0We didn’t have much of a view from the top and only made it as far as St. Mark’s peak. We delayed are decent for about 30mins for some lunch and geocaching in hopes that the fog would clear. It didn’t clear so we headed back down.<\/p>\n

Later on the\u00a0trail\u00a0some sunny breaks appeared.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\u00a0We never made it over Unnecessary Mountain or the base of the Lions.. But we want to try again someday because this hike would have been much better without snow and fog.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
