Thanks Saint. This is massive country as you know...but our mountains look somewhat larger due to the tree line being lower as well...7500' usually tops out all tree and shrub vegetation...I was just on the Wapta Icefield (directly behind these peaks in the photograph) peakbagging for 3 days via skis....harsh country at 8000'+ in that neck of the woods as you can imagine...the Canadians are great about maintaining their hut system though. Only ones better I think are the kiwi's. Cheers Saint.

""You cannot stay on the summit forever; you have to come down again. So why bother in the first place? Just this: What is above knows what is below, but what is below does not know what is above. One climbs, one sees. One descends, one sees no longer, but one has seen. There is an art of conducting oneself in the lower regions by the memory of what one saw higher up. When one can no longer see, one can at least still know.""   --Rene Daumal
