Summer Garibaldi Neve Traverse

The Summer Garibaldi traverse is the summer trekking version of the popular ski traverse. Mount Garibaldi (known as Nch'kaý to the indigenous Squamish people) is a dormant stratovolcano that towers above Squamish, BC at an elevation of 2,678 metres (8,786 feet). The northern and eastern flanks of Mount Garibaldi are obscured by the Garibaldi Névé, a large snowfield containing several radiating glaciers. Our route will traverse around this beautiful peak starting on the southern flanks, wrapping around past the Opal Cone (a small volcanic cone from which a lengthy lava flow descends), across the Neve (a glaciated zone on the east and north sides of the peak) and finally down Brohm Ridge to our waiting vehicle.
