Kitchener | | Date | 3 July 2024, Wednesday | | Trip Coordinator | Norris Weimer | | Contact Info | 285-3710 or norris.weimer@ualberta.ca. Please contact the coordinator by Monday evening. | | Description | Mt. Kitchener is located northeast of Campbell River and south of Sayward in the Prince of Wales Range. The summit is 1,457m, but fortunately the first 1,000 m can be driven up, leaving about 500 m elevation gain. The trail begins steeply through the forest and after a short scramble emerges onto a sub-alpine ridge. As the the ridge gains height, the views appear on all directions. We will visit Mt. McCreight (1,419 m) with some remembrances of the military plane crash from 1950. We will continue on to Mt. Kitchener, but not visit the crash site. | | Meeting Place | Q Cove Ferry terminal. | | Departure Time | 8:00 ferry. If the weather is very hot, we may go earlier. | Difficulty
