Observation
Peak
August 1, 2004 Third time's a charm. After two attempts in the fall when snow extended to the lower slopes, we took no chances this time and bagged the peak easily in the summer. The route is obvious: just aim for the false summit. From there it's a long hike to the true summit. There are probably great views at the top but we couldn't see much because of the haze caused by forest fires in B.C. |
