STRATHCONA PROVINCIAL PARK, BC -Here are some pictures from our latest adventure. We joined our friends Peggy and Roger for a weekend in the backcountry near Mt. Washington. We hiked more than 40km and climbed two mountains over three days. Peggy and Roger are members of the Alpine Club of Canada and wanted to practice their guiding skills. We accomplished what we set out to do; climb Castle Crag and Mount Frink.
We started out at Paradise Meadows and hiked in about 7km to Kwai Lake where we set up camp.
The next morning we set out for a 23 km hike that took us about 12 hours to complete. There was a lot of snow but the hike was well worth it.
