bring your own food and plenty of fluids to last the day. There is a water tap at the start, but be prepared in case it is out of service. There is also water at the Grouse Chalet for the 18km or 36km option. Drinking from the creeks is not recommended.
-
bring extra clothes in case the weather changes or you have to slow down.
-
bring emergency back country gear and a headlamp/flashlight. If you do not know what that means, better wait another year.

Don't forget a change of clothes for afterwards.
