Chain up!
You’ll need chains on your tires to access the parking lot used for the trip. You can get them at Canadian Tire for around $100.
It’s currently a requirement from BC parks to have chains. If you don’t, there’s a chance they will ticket you, whether or not they are needed normally. If you don’t have chains or are unable to get any ahead of the trip, let us know within 48 hours of receiving this email and we will refund you your course fee.
Please refer to your sign up email for which location you will be meeting at. Please note: Special trips and courses will have a different location outside of the ones listed here.
