  • Mount Robie Reid is a 2095 meter peak just outside of Vancouver, BC in the Coast Mountain Range. This was my single day summit in late September, 2020 and can serve as a guideline as to what to expect if you decide to attempt the route yourself.
    Wikipedia: "Mount Robie Reid 2,095 m (6,873 ft) is a mountain in the southern end of the Garibaldi Ranges overlooking the Lower Mainland region of British Columbia, Canada. It lies to the north of Mission, and on the west side of the upper end of Stave Lake, and to the northeast of the group of summits known as the Golden Ears. It has a prominence of 1,245 m (4,085 ft) relative to the lowest col between the valleys of Tingle and Osprey Creeks (Osprey Creek is tributary to the Pitt River drainage).
    Together with Mount Judge Howay, which lies northeast across the deep valley of Tingle Creek, it was known as one of the Snow Peaks, and until its renaming in 1944 was referred to by old-timers as Old Baldy. Its name commemorates Robie Lewis Reid, a noted historian and educator whose colleague Frederic W. Howay is commemorated by Mount Judge Howay. Although relatively low, views of it dominate the mountain skyline from western Abbotsford and is also visible from Maple Ridge, North Surrey and New Westminster-Coquitlam."

    Great video reminding me of the fantastic trip we made so many years ago. Thanks also for the image of plaque we left as BCIT students doing this hike 52 years ago when there was no trail. Len Metcalfe.

    Have watched this video multiple times as I have been planning this trip for the past few years. (have yet to find someone comfortable to take it on with me..) but thank you for this as I have had to piece together various data from others, sites, etc. love your commentary. Hope to summit this year toward end of September if possible or the next.

    Did you climb 2000 meters up? That mountain looks really cool. I think the record for a mountain run here in Norway is 1800 meters, 8 km, in 1 hour and 8 mins. We norwegians love our mountain hiking ;).

    • @Jameswmin
      @Jameswmin 3 роки тому +1

      It’s a 360° camera on a stick. The software is clever enough to remove the stick from the footage. You can see the shadow of it at 11:00.

    • @GaryRobbins
      @GaryRobbins  3 роки тому +1

      Looks like James beat me to it 😆 thanks James! It's called the Insta360 One X and works as James says it does. This was a solo mission and the footage it creates is quite cool, at least in my humble opinion 😊

  • @dtocher
    @dtocher 3 роки тому

    Fantastic video and commentating Gary. Thanks very much for all the effort. Would you mind giving me your opinion on if the hiking portion from your car to the tarn, is doable by a totally average hiker? Just that part, not the climb past the tarn. Thank you.

    • @GaryRobbins
      @GaryRobbins  3 роки тому +1

      I only have the original guide from 2005 and it wasn't listed in there. It may be in a subsequent edition but I'm unaware of that if it is the case or not.

    Hi Gary, great content! Do you know a company or someone (maybe you will do it in the future) that offers like a small group guided hike on those more advanced trails? I’m new in Canada (friends and wife not really keen on steep hikes) and I usually hike alone so I wouldn’t go to that area by myself but I’d totally pay someone to guide. Let me know if you know that company/person. Thanks!
