Description
Revised to a Plan B because of “iffy” weather. A local hike of about 2 hours. Meet at Aberdeen Mall at 9:00
An all-day hike to the summit of Alpaca
- meet early to carpool
- hike from Zopkios Rest Area up to the summit of Zupjok Peak
- continue along the ridge over Llama Peak and up to Alpaca and back
- this will require steady hiking to get out and back in a day (6.5 to 7 hours) to cover about 18km
- a scenic, but demanding route so fitness requirements are high
- some forest to work through on the south face of Zupjok
- a long day so adequate preparation is essential
- bring lots of water
- article on the area – Zupjok Peak
- info on Doug’s hikes
- a good peak to bag Δ
I will add Alpaca Peak to the events for 2017.
Retired now, I get into the outdoors most days to hike, paddle, camp, snowshoe, run, walk, or explore. More information can be found at: KamloopsTrails.net.
