I completed my first mountain climb on the BC Mainland (and first one ever) this week. Very strenuous to say the least but a very worthwhile experience for both photography ... and for future treks. The "Wedge", as the locals call the Wedgemount Trail, climbs 1220 metres (or 3,965 ft) in 6km. I have tried to show the change in terrain and the eventual rugged and near barren area where camping is permitted. Over the next few days and preparing a detailed short story of the trip for future publication.
Hope you enjoy a look at the "Wedge".
Finally
The Wedgemount Glacier to the middle left was in plain sight and I could relax. NO MORE CLIMBING! From left to right - Lesser Wedge Mtn, Wedge Mtn, and Parkhurst Mtn. Note the hut and toillets are in view (middle just to the left).
