Anita and I took Monday off to head up Boundary Peak in the Icefields Parkway. This peak overlooks the Athabasca Glacier, whose name you might recognize as the site of the tragic snowcoach rollover accident from earlier this summer. Difficulties on our trek were minimal, aside from some minor throat irritation from the thick smoke of the forest fires in the US. It felt like we were wandering through a vape shop for most of the day. Views of the glacial terrain were obscured as a result, but the smoke did add some moodiness to the photos.
Assuming the air quality doesn't deteriorate much further over the next couple days, Jas and I will be hitting this area again on Saturday morning for a 4am start on a guided climb up the massive glacier seen in the photos.
