Trip Report - Mt. Lawrence Grassi

This will be one of the last hiking/ scrambling related sets of photos from me for the year, as we've hit shoulder season. The fall weather at ground level quickly turns to wintery conditions up top, inducing 'We're going to die' panicked moments from Anita which are obviously not fun for her, and even less fun for me having to calm her mid mountain. So unless we get another unexpected bout of warm weather, my scrambling season will stop at 16 peaks, with 14,001m or 46,669ft of total elevation gained.

We headed out to Canmore yesterday and took a quick jaunt up Mt. Lawrence Grassi, and had the entire mountain to ourselves. Not another soul in sight the entire way up and down. It was cold, but the views of snow covered peaks at the top were incredible and made it all worthwhile.


Winter has arrived?
