Loder Peak and Door Jamb Mountain
Kananaskis
December 13, 2003

The climb is largely a hike but more interesting than one would expect because of unusual rock formations. We parked at the same spot used for the Jura Creek trail and headed up the ridge.


Doorjam Mountain (first high point) and Loder Peak (second hight point).


Heading to Door Jamb Mountain. Mouse over to see our May trip when
snow prevented us from going past Door Jam.


Most of the ridge is a hike.


Some easy scrambling sections


Great scenery along the ridge
