I'll be there. I know where 3 Little Pigs branches off Decapitator, but I'm not sure where Manhandler comes out at. I'll be probably hiking up the Gutter, (maybe ride up powerlines) what do I need to bring with me (tools etc.)

IF you guys are coming up from the Coquitlam Centre side of the mountian, I will take you up to the trail. Meet me at 9:45 at the 7-11 on Johnson St.

To get there from Lougheed Highway follow Lougheed to Johnson (just west of Coquitlam Center), head North (up the hill) until you get to Panorama Dr, turn left. THe 7-11 is on Panorama Dr past the golf course. Be there @ 9:45.

Hammer or shovel.....but no tools are needed if its a problem

The bottom of Manhandler connects to the top of 3 little pigs

If you go to the top of 3 little pigs you will hear/see us

I am hiking up. I won't be there for long as I have to help my wife with a party that we are putting on Saturday night.

Please post in this thread if you want to go up with me. If there is no one I will just head up on my own.

Yes, it's too bad we didn't reschedule for today. The wife and I took a hike up Manhandler, and Massage Therapy, and came down 4 Lost Souls and Dentist. The latest wind storms have brought down some trees on Manhandler (near the top) and on Dentist (about mid-way, before the bridge)Great day for a hike.

Last year I helped a group blaze a trail in the area west of Randy's. It looks like someone has been up there, but nothing really has been done. Does anyone know if there's plans for this? It would be nice to have a lower level trail, lower on the mountain. Something to learn on for all levels. We lost alot of that with Holy Grail and Strong road trails disappearing.

The building on the upper trails is awesome, but it will be a long time before I'm skilled enought to ride most of the stunts on them. Pigs and Mistress are better (for me). They are at least sane, and there's ride around options on most.
