good little link either go to it or:
Directions:
Long, long way on dirt. About 1.25 hours from the highway. 2wd fine until last 2km.
The park access from north (Slocan) and south (Castlegar/Nelson) is different, the following description is from the south.
Take hwy 6 through Slocan Park and watch for Passmore Upper Rd on the left. Take this and cross a bridge, stay straight at the fork, then road curves north and pavement ends. The km markers count backwards from 45 at this end. All major forks are signed 'Valhalla' to keep you on course - soon you are on Little Slocan FSR. At about 22km marker, come to Little Slocan Lake FS rec site - a nice place to spend a free night camping. Meters later, take a signed left for "Drinnon Pass".
KM markers start at 0 now - again, all unclear forks are signed. A little after km 18, stay left, and then right. Low clearance cars may want to park here, as the 1st km of the next 2 to the lot is downright ugly - reminded me of an old creekbed.

Tick Tock, tick tock.........

Well it has been many moons since we last had contact, and well..... we need to get some shit straightened out. I have a couple ideas for the Hike, I am Assuming we are all stuck in a vortex of our own lives and it is hard to keep in mind that well... there is only 2.5 months till the hike....
Isn't that crazy, Have any one done the math recently? crazy!
Anyways, I have been wanting to do some Grand Post with lots of details of each hike.. Km Camping? possible Peaks, and alternatives
Well we might as well wait for the cows to come home.... so i am putting this on to stimulate conversation.....


I have been thinking that it is only right that we re-visit the Valhalla's.... Lucifer..... well...... we have talked of the taint that marred that trip, it just didn't end up right... for most. So On that Note i think that it should be Priority 1.. whether we re-visit Gwillem lakes, or go one valley over.
