2. From Wee Sandy Lake, ascend a steep talus slope and then ninety meters of steep rock to the ridge, also from the col.
3. The west face, gained from Caribou Creek is Class 2. The west face is easily reached from the col.

5. The east slopes are an easy route.

I would like to think of myself as a full time traveler. I have been retired since 2006 and in that time have traveled every winter for four to seven months. The months that I am "home", are often also spent on the road, hiking or kayaking. I hope to present a website that describes my travel along with my hiking and sea kayaking experiences.
