"Summary: This trip required a whitewater pack raft to cross Simon Creek (class 2-3 whitewater ferry) and the Whirlpool River (class 1 whitewater ferry). Many hours of dense bushwhacking up (and down) Ross Cox Creek valley. Above treeline mostly Class 1 scramble, except final 50 m is class 2 scrambling to summit. On the south side of the Whirlpool River part way along the trail to Athabasca Pass lies an unnamed summit immediately southwest of Curl Peak and Divergence Peak that appears to have no previously recorded ascent. We attempted to reach the base of this peak to climb it in 2021, but the small pack raft we had brought to cross Simon Creek was not up to the task since Simon Creek is a torrent that prevents accessing this peak during summer months unless you bring a pack raft that allows one to ferry across class 2-3 whitewater. We tried again to climb this peak in 2022, bringing along a 2 person whitewater pack raft. Finding a place to land on the other side when ferrying across Simon Creek is a bit tricky since its banks are abrupt, have few eddies, and are guarded by tree branches in many places. We found a spot about 50m upstream of where Simon Creek flows into the Whirl..." — wfinlay • Aug 21, 2022
