๐จ๐ฆ Escaping Vancouver's 30ยฐC Heat in the Mountains ๐ฒโ๏ธ
๐ Cheakamus, High, Tantalus View & Alder Trails Loop / Brohm Lake Interpretive Forest "Beat the heat... sort of." Planned to hike Garibaldi but trails were closed due to cougar sightings ๐, so we improvised! ๐ฟ Trail Highlights: โ๏ธ Shady & lushโplants literally overtaking the path ๐ฟ โ๏ธ No orange markers (adventure mode: ON!) โ๏ธ Summit climb similar to Murrin Park vibes ๐ง โ๏ธ Hidden viewpoint tip from a trail angelโbetter than the summit! (Hello, Tantalus views! ๐๐๏ธ) ๐ฆ Water Wonders: The river near Porteau Cove + northern inlets = dreamy milky-green hues in summer. ๐ ๐ Not-So-Chill Return: Hwy 1 traffic was brutal... until we spotted a dude jamming on drumsticks in his car. ๐ฅ๐ ๐ Porteau Cove (Address along Sea-to-Sky Highway) Perfect for: โ๏ธ Heat escapees | ๐ธ Landscape photographers | ๐ Dog adventurers #HeatWaveEscape #MountainMagic #BCAdventures #UnexpectedDiscoveries #TrailAngel
