Buchanan Ridge East Peak2012.01.24 New Year scramble at Buchanan Ridge in Waterton again!! Man it's so dry this year, it was more like late September condition. |
GR805317 Attempt2012.01.24 I cannot believe how stupid I was not brining my snowshoes… My second attempt to Phillipps Peak was complete failure. |
Ski at Pulpit Peak2012.01.24 The first yoyo skiing of the season at an outlier of Pulpit Peak. It was nice powder and had fun. After all yoyo maybe isn't as bad as I think. |
Ski at Kootenay Burn2012.02.07 Joined ACC ski event coordinated by Benben. We went skiing between trees at Kootenay Burn which is a Vermillion Peak's slope. |
Columbia Icefield2012.02.07 It would have been my one of highlights in this business if I could have successfully summit Mount Columbia, but it didn't happen this time. |
Prairie Mountain2012.03.19 Finally I decided to go to Prairie Mountain. It was a beautiful day out… at least where I was, not deeper into the mountains. |
Yates Mountain2012.03.19 Visiting Yates Mountain AKA Barrier Lake Lookout. After a rough week in the mountains, even this snow less area got some snow. |
Junction Hill2012.04.15 Unknown peak turned out to be Junction Hill. I didn't know. I did while loop on this small peak in south Kananaskis. |
Mount Haffner2012.04.15 Nice to be back standing on top of a summit which was higher than treeline. Mount Hanffer offered me great views. |
Emerald Peak2012.04.24 I had the perfect weather for a superb summit. Emerald Peak in Yoho did not disapoint me at all. I highly recommend this peak. |
Storm Mountain North Ridge2012.04.24 I stormed to Storm Mountain North Ridge… Fine I am sorry, but least you get my trip report for free. Another peak done. |
Hector South2012.05.15 Back to Hector but this time it's Hector South at GR521118. This peak offers crazy awesome view of Mount Hector. |
Little Temple2012.05.15 Little Temple which is a small peak NE of Mount Temple. We came across unexpected crux traversing from false to true summit. |

Mt. Olive to St. Nicholas2012.05.27 After dropping extra gear at Bow Hut, we continued to go for Mount Olive - St. Nicholas Peak. Couldn't waste a beautiful day. |
Mt. Thompson to Mt. Rhondda to the Onion2012.05.27 May long weekend. We went for 2.1 peaks in Wapta Icefield. Thompson, Rhondda and the deadly Onion… |
Mount Jimmy Simpson2012.06.02 Is it Jimmy Johnson? Or Jimmy Spencer? No it's Mount Jimmy Simpson. Sorry non-NASCAR fans. |
Observation Peak2012.06.02 I must love Bow Lake so much, I came back again. Early start for early season ascent of Observation Peak. |
Saskatoon Mountain2012.07.31 With my misfortune, I had to gave up my original plan and settled with a small small peak called Saskatoon Mountain. |
The Wedge2012.07.31 It's been a while since I summited a peak. I managed to find a time to go for a short scramble in July long weekend. |
The Fortress2012.08.07 Waited for a beautiful summar day to do the Fortress, Chester to Headwall Lakes traverse. Weather wasn't great but it was still a wonderful day. |
Storm Mountain (Highwood)2012.08.07 Joined CSMS event for Storm Mountain. Just as my friends told me, it was more challenging than how the scramble book describes. |
Mount Cline2012.08.22 My first 11,000er of the year (humm that is little sad…) I went Mount Cline with ACC + others without knowing it was ACC… |
Mount Buller2012.08.22 Surprisingly unpopular peak, Mount Buller. Maybe it's something to do with the slab, but rewards at the summit was awesome. |
Kid Goat2012.12.19 Shaun is my teacher for rock climbing. He taught me how to indoor climb, sport climb, traditional climb, then this time muliti-pitch climbing. |
Lake Louise to Skoki Traverse2012.12.19 Thinking about this 4 peak traverse from LL ski report to Skoki for a while. Finally I decided to do this under a wonderful weather. |

Abbot Pass Hut2013.01.01 We couldn't attempt Mount Victoria south due to the weather, so we were stuck inside Abbot Pass Hut for the weekend. |
Little Hector2013.01.01 This trip was supposed to be 2 peak day but with my lack of research, I only got to Little Hector. |
Mount Ogden2013.01.02 Little more difficult than my guess, Mount Ogden was surely a challenging peak just like its neighbor Wapta Mountain. |
Mount Amery2013.01.02 Mount Amery turned out to be very memorable trip. I will not forget the painful river crossing and a long bushwhacking. |
Mount Tecumseh2013.06.05 The last peak in Kane's Crowsnest section, Mount Tecumseh. This peak was short and quite straight forward approach. |
