Crest Mountain

June 17th, 2019

It was a clear and warm morning when 10 Ramblers and a guest tackled Crest Mountain, most for the first time. We ground our way up the switchbacks in good time with no snow until we hit the plateau.

We chose to skip the summit and headed up to the viewpoint where we lunched with Kings, Queens, and Rambler Peaks as a backdrop. It was warm and sunny, with almost enough wind to keep the black flies at bay.

After lunch we perambulated around the tarns before heading down.

Some of us soaked our legs or swam in Upper Campbell Lake before heading to the Riptide for dinner in Campbell River.

Thanks to all for the pleasure of your company.
