Mt. Baldy 1st scramble 09/07LOL


The answers are out there somewhere...






















Maybe up here?






Spent the night in Canmore to

wake up to low cloud cover and high humidity. So Pete and I spent the day climbing at Grassi lakes and then off to Mt. Baldy in Kananaskis Country. Cold damp morning climb but a great hike up Baldy with great views and nice weather for the trip.

Mt.Hector 04/02/07

Summit !



Pete hauling his load. This guy is a sherpa!




And Pete's load laying out in all it's glory.








Mt. Hector still off in the distance, waits for the summit party on route.
This is Little Hector.







Had to stick to the rocks as the snow was super soft due to the really warm, no hot, weather









There was some awesome avalanche action coming off of Little Hector all day. We sat and watched a size 1 come off this face while we had lunch.

A long way still to go...



















The slog on and on and on and on and on and on...














Almost there now...












Some how it got turned to B/W but they still made for good pic's.

This me just below the summit pyramid.
This is right below the summit and the last picture my camera made. Dead batteries so no summit picture. Pete got one of me so I will post that later.
