A rough cost breakdown

Here is a rough estimate of our potential trip to Mt. Edziza for you:

Tentative date: Leaving Vancouver on July15 and coming back on July 24.

_ Fly from Vancouver to Smithers (round trip): just bellow $600

_ Renting a car from Smithers National Car Rental (Full size sedan) for 8 days. That is a 500 Km drive on highway 37 that is a paved highway and good for drive to Tatogga, where we take our float plane: between $600 to $650. This is including tax and extra mileage (100 Km per day limit), which we will use. We could upgrade to a minivan for around $150 extra.

_ The flight From Tatogga to Buckley lake and pick up from Mowdade Lake, as I mentioned in my previous post ("update on Edziza cost") would be $1920+GST.

Now, the last thing is that I am assuming when we fly from Vancouver to Smithers and pick up our car and drive up north 500 Km to tatogga on the same day, we would be tired and want to rest over night and leave to our hike the next day. Same goes for our way back to tatogga. We probably want to rest over night before driving down to Smithers and back to Vancouver. In which case the stay at Tatogga Lake Resort for 2 nights would cost us something about $240.

Now we can do a calculation!!!
