Hi All:

I recently discovered this forum while looking for trail info on Northover Ridge. Now having returned, I'd like to post this note:

FOUND - nearly new hiking poles in PLPP at GR199138 in very interesting location. Owner may claim by posting description of poles and the story on how they came to be there.

Cheers,
Dean

Clendinning Valley? (North West of Squamish). A valley where no one has gone before. If so, they are mine. If they are mine, story to follow.

Sometimes if I am going to do an off trail scramble I will leave my poles behind at some point and pick them up later. Hopefully that's not the case. Leave poles where you find them please.

I was coming down the north end of Pocaterra ridge when I became separated from my group. Not knowing which way to go to hit the highway, I put down my poles and got out my map and compass. Having determined the direction I needed to go, with map in one hand and compass in the other, I walked towards the road, forgetting the poles. By the time I remembered that I had left them, it was impossible to find them. They are Chinook Technical poles, one silver, one green.

I see that some people are challenged at reading grid references.

I left some behind for that reason on the Baby Munday approach (black & blue Scott ski poles). Unfortunately, I forgot to pick them up on the way back...

Good thing I've got 2 other sets.
