Some pix from this past Sunday, June 15th/08 - scrambling with James and Mitch.
There had been a ton of snow earlier mid week in the mountains (~20-30 cm) and we weren't too sure if it would melt off... I had never considered hiking in this area but James and Mitch had researched this peak, as well as a couple of possibilities near Fernie. Ultimately we thought this would be a suitable goal for the (possibly) snowy conditions. There was a bit of lingering snow near the summit but it ended up not being an issue.
There was a big rocket shaped tower near the summit and what appears to be a helicopter pad, similar to the machinations at the top of Mt. Crandell. Martians! Meteorologists? Who knows?!
