Cregheur to Yellow Box Hike

 

Yellow Box

Distance:  ~18 kms     Hike duration:  hrs     Pace:  Fast     Ascent:  ~500 m

Starting from the Cregheur Road bump out we will climb up where the rock climbers climb using the ladders and scrambling.

From there, we will go to the Luskville Falls trails and then take the escarpment top trail to the Yellow Box.

Lunch at the Yellow Box will be at least 20 minutes so that we have time for nutrition.  It is an exposed spot so participants need to have an extra shell to put on to stay warm.

We will return the same way, so it is an out and back. This means we will come down the steep slope with scrambling and ladders, where you will not be using your poles. If there is ice, we will definitely take an alternate (a little bit longer) route back, but if there is no ice, we will just come back down the same way.

  

The plan is to be back to the cars before dark.  Please bring headlamps if you have just in case. Please bring micro spikes just in case.

Meet at Supreme Court at 8:00 for 8:15 departure or let your leader, Navid Foroudi, know that you will meet at Cregheur at 9:00.
