Backpacking Exploring the Fryatt Valley A hidden gem of an area within Jasper National Park! A 22km trail gives access to the Alpine Club of Canada's Fryatt Creek Hut and let us enjoy a quiet few days exploring some beautiful Rocky Mountain terrain. We had the pristine turquoise lakes and cozy cabin almost entirely to ourselves.
Backpacking SCT Day 10: Fairview Bay to Saltery Bay Our final day on the Sunshine Coast Trail... We enjoyed coastal views for our entire 6.5km hike today, starting with a stunning sunrise over the bay. We had such an incredible experience hiking this trail in its entirity from North to South!
Backpacking SCT Day 9: Golden Stanley to Fairview Bay Our second-to-last day on the trail - we hiked the most elevation gain and loss, and close to the longest distance in a single day. Up and over the tallest point on the trail, Mount Troubridge. We ran into a group of qPAWS volunteers and learned a lot about the trail!
Backpacking SCT Day 8: Walt Hill to Golden Stanley Day 8 on the Sunshine Coast Trail: we woke up to an incredible sunrise, walked along the shores of Lois Lake, and enjoyed a candlelit dinner at Golden Stanley.
Backpacking SCT Day 7: Elk Lake to Walt Hill Hut With a planned distance of only 14km, this was to be our shortest hiking day yet! However, the trail had some other plans for us - but we learned a valuable lesson.
