Join us May 24-26 as we put our legs & lungs to the test to raise money for the Sea to Sky Hospice Society, in collaboration with their annual Hike for Hospice Fundraiser. This year we want to help make a dent in their fundraising goals, by getting the local trail community involved in the Hike for Hospice. Their goal is to raise $75,000!
This is a Virtual event where you can participate from anywhere in the world. We will host some group run sessions in Squamish over the weekend as well, with a focus on going up!.
Registration is $20, which goes directly to the Sea to Sky Hospice. You will have a 48hr window to rack up as much vert as you can: Friday May 24, at 5pm until Sunday May 26, at 5pm
As a bonus for taking part, we (capra) will have a few draw prizes to give away. Every 100m that you climb from Friday May 24th 5pm to Sunday May 26th 5pm earns you one ticket into the prize draw. *all data must be confirmed by Strava* The person with the most vert during this 48 hour period will also receive a special prize.
The Sea to Sky Gondola will provide one complimentary download ticket for each registered participant that hikes up to the gondola on Saturday May 25th.
We’re lucky, in our neck of the woods. We have tons of vert options: the Chief will earn you 580m, while EVAC or Sea to Summit will bank 900m. You may not be so lucky, and you have to do laps of the local neighbourhood stairs/hill. BUT IT ALL COUNTS.
*All data MUST be confirmed by Strava to qualify for prizes* Stay tuned for group hiking times & paces to be announced.
The Sea to Sky Hospice Society exists and works so that you, your loved ones and
your communities have access to supportive services and programs to facilitate
a life well lived to the end of one’s life. We also offer bereavement support for
those experiencing grief from the loss of a loved one through our drop in walks,
groups and caregiver support.
