Hike the Famous 100K La Cloche Silhouette Trail in Killary

paddler(paddler)
本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛We are planning to hike the renowned 100K La Cloche Silhouette Trail in Killary Provincial Park over the Thanksgiving long weekend, when the whole park turns into a magnificent oil painting, as frequently depicted by the Group of Seven.

A simple itinerary is listed below:
Friday Oct 5: leave Toronto early afternoon, get to the George Lake campground before dark (ideally), eat and rest.
Saturday Oct 6: leave the George Lake campground early morning, hike about 40K to get to the interior camp site H34 or H35, set up tents, eat and rest.
Sunday Oct 7: get up early to scale the Silver Peak (the highest point in Killary), come back to H34 or H35, break tents, hike about 35K to get to interior camp site H18 or H19, set up tents, eat and rest.
Monday Oct 8: finish the last leg, get back to the George Lake campground, and head home.

This trail is NOT an easy one. Even over a three-day course, it is still fairly challenging and demanding. Would only suggest to people in good shape.

Gears: 3-season backcountry tents (NOT car camping tents), good sleeping bags (-7 C at least), large backpack (around 80L), etc.

Currently, we have 5 people. If you are interested in this one, please PM me. Thanks.

    • Finishing La Cloche Silhouette Trail in three days!!! You are ambitious. Waiting for your travel log. Good luck. -diao_david(秋风起蟹儿黄); 2007-9-14 (#1710@3)
    • Very ambitious.... regular hiking speed without the backpack is around 5-6k/hr, 40K per day at least takes 8 hours...... -alwayswithyou99(Sabrina); 2007-9-16 (#1713@3)
    • Want go but unsure if I can do it, the longest I've done is 30+K took 12 hrs, end up broke down on the camp site entrance can't move for an hour . -jas(JAS); 2007-9-18 (#1715@3)
    • I am interested. Check your PM. -ak49jay(ak49); 2007-9-18 (#1716@3)
      • 11，你们两个家伙，欺负我去不了。 -diao_david(秋风起蟹儿黄); 2007-9-19 (#1717@3)
        • 这不就是等你组织，实在等不下去了呗。 -ak49jay(ak49); 2007-9-19 (#1718@3)
          • 你也赶紧生个娃,我们就能计划到一块儿了 -diao_david(秋风起蟹儿黄); 2007-9-19 (#1719@3)
            • 他不是要去Inca吗，该练练。不过我觉得走Inca最大的困难不在体能在海拔.根据我贡嘎的感受,4千米以下可以很轻松，4千米以上两腿立马歇菜。 -jas(JAS); 2007-9-20 (#1720@3)
              • Inca 恐怕今年没戏了。圣诞期间机票贵得离谱。只去十天八天不是很值。 -ak49jay(ak49); 2007-9-20 (#1721@3)
            • I could lend you a baby carrier, a really good one, if you would like to take your baby with you; even better, I could offer to carry all your gears, so long as you would like to give it a try :) -paddler(paddler); 2007-9-20 (#1724@3)
              • LOL -alwayswithyou99(Sabrina); 2007-9-20 (#1725@3)
              • 我们爬过Silver Peak 一段，感觉如果轻装简行，三天也是可能的。不过这次我是真的去不了，明年春天如果娃能在背架子里坐住了，倒是可以恢复我们的周末Hiking。 -diao_david(秋风起蟹儿黄); 2007-9-24 (#1726@3)
      • It might not be as fascinating as the West Coast Trail in BC, or the North Rim in Newfoundland, but it's already the best in Ontario. You might get exhausted, but you will NEVER regret it. -paddler(paddler); 2007-9-20 {429} (#1722@3)
        If you have done some serious trekking, this should be like "walk in the park", although at a brisk pace. Just to assuage your concern, it has been done under a much more aggressive timeline. Have seen young college kids finished up the whole thing within 3 days. Bottom line: no big deal. The major theme: enjoy the varicolored fall at Killary, in the early morning and at deep night. Please check PM for contact info. Thanks.
        • Did you send me a PM already? For some reason I haven't received it. I have sent you my contact via PM. -ak49jay(ak49); 2007-9-20 (#1723@3)
        • 在Gros Morne 山顶感觉不错，以后再去牛方，North Rim是一个理由。 -diao_david(秋风起蟹儿黄); 2007-9-24 (#1727@3)
    • 回来了吗？等着看你们的游记呢。真要是三天走完，你们一定创记录了。 -diao_david(碧云天黄叶地秋色连波); 2007-10-10 (#1729@3)
      • 三天不算纪录，他们试过28小时走完。 -ak49jay(ak49); 2007-10-11 {1088} (#1730@3)
        本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛这次天公不作美，加上有人受伤，只走了20K就回头了。连SilverPeak都没去。

        Day1:午夜左右赶到GeorgeLake营地。还没扎营就开始下雨。雷电交加中过了一晚。到了早上雨还没有停的迹象。只好取消当天的行程，改计划：第二天背包走20K到营地，争取下午2点到。然后轻装上SilverPeak. 天黑前回营地。第三天原路而回。当天就在附近的短trail走了一下。

        Day2: 6：30起床，折腾到9点才出发。还没上路其中一人就伤了膝盖。一路上走走停停没太留意时间。12点才到the Crack. 2点赶到营地已不大可能。伤员明显跟不上队伍。决定4个男士轮流背伤员的包。结果4点半才到营地。不用说，上SilverPeak的计划只能取消。实在太累，9点不到就钻进了帐篷。晚上下雨也没听到。

        Day3: 6:30起床，8点出发，原路往回走。出发前，把伤员的行李瓜分。伤员自己基本只背一个空包。没走多久，开始下雨，比前一天走得更慢了。1点回到the Crack.决定走一条day hiker上公路的平路。到了公路后，派了人跑了7.5K回GeorgeLake取车。

        Trail 上风景不错，可惜天气不好，雾大，登高后看不到很远。我们走的那段比较chanllenge,很值得一去。我觉得比WCT难走。很多山路， 没有梯子。

        三天走完loop 和 Silver Peak 也是可能的。不过要一大早出发。而且一路上绝对是暴走，慢慢享受美景和拍照就不大可能了。更多精彩文章及讨论，请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
        • 我觉得我们说的不是一条路吧？两年前我和Jason, Amanda，Luke爬过Silver Peak，知道道路的艰险。也研究过全长100公里的La Cloche Silhouette Trail。感觉怎么着三天也走不完啊。照你说比WCT还难走，我们在WCT最多也就是一天走25公里。 -diao_david(碧云天黄叶地秋色连波); 2007-10-11 (#1731@3)
          • 应该是一条路。据说过了SilverPeak就是康庄大道了。当然三天走完是自虐，和游山玩水扯不上了。 -ak49jay(ak49); 2007-10-11 {77} (#1733@3)
            你们走了几天？从GeorgeLake出发的吗？看明年有没有时间，我想4天走完loop足够了。
            • 我们是划船到山脚，背包全扔在船里，轻装上阵。登顶来回大概十几公里，感觉还好。4天可以找机会一试。 -diao_david(碧云天黄叶地秋色连波); 2007-10-11 (#1734@3)
              • 我最近有点犯病了，每天晚上把帐篷支在客厅里睡。 -jas(JAS); 2007-10-12 (#1735@3)
                • 等下了雪，咱再去雪地里撒野吧。 -diao_david(碧云天黄叶地秋色连波); 2007-10-12 (#1737@3)
        • 反对不享受美景不拍照的hike :D:D:D -pasu(InTheSky); 2007-10-11 (#1732@3)
        • 不用问肯定是你跑了7.5k. -jas(JAS); 2007-10-12 {162} (#1736@3)
          帐篷凌了雨，回来一定要洗洗晾干。两年前我懒了一下， 前几天把TNF Mountain 25拿出来一看，当时我这心啊，就像帐篷的防雨涂层一样，被霉菌融化了。彻底玩完。当年花了$$$。
          • 太多人自告奋勇，没轮上我。 -ak49jay(ak49); 2007-10-13 {94} (#1738@3)
            我也就乐得坐在路边看包了。一哥们跑得虚脱了，到了后就躺在地上了。

            我那帐篷还在客厅里摊着呢。
