Howe Sound Crest Trail Epic - Porteau Cove to Cypress

I'm new to the club so this is my first flash event.

Plan is to leave Vancouver around 6am.  We can drive to the trailhead, or if people feel ambitious we can bike there and lock our bikes up in the forest.  Use the new trail up to Deeks lakes, bag a peak or two, run into snow, get lost, get found, finish at Cypress, retrieve bikes (if applicable), carbo-hyrate with chilled frothy beverages at a pub.

Come prepared for snow (atleast mentally).

I expect we'll be in the 8-12 hour range.

37km

~2500m vertical

I've arranged for a friend to pick us up at Cypress at the end, so we don't need to drop a car.
