Frequently Asked Questions / Planning Your Hike

Where can I check current weather and mountain forecasts?

Use Environment Canada for the regional forecast, the mountain forecasts on SpotWx or Mountain Weather Online for trailhead and summit conditions, Avalanche Canada in winter, and individual ski-resort or park pages for snow depth on the North Shore mountains or in Whistler. Temperatures can drop 5–10 °C from the trailhead to the summit, and weather on the coast changes fast, so be prepared.
