Little Lougheed

"I did NOT want to do Prairie or Ha Ling again, so I convinced Stephan this one had spectacular views and it was worth the extra bit of driving. He actually only complained once and that was at the scree slope. The rest of the trip he was quite happy to be out! We sat up top for about half an hour and enjoyed lunch. There were about 8 or 10 other people on the mountain. Conditions only warranted traction, which was great! The last time I did this I didn't get the view and had worn snowshoes the entire way up, so this ascent was quite the contrast. Gorgeous day, perfect temps, amazing views." — leigh-annewebster • Feb 12, 2022

"Feli, Mike and I went out with Roger and Adriana, but they turned around about half-way up. The three of us continued up. I kept snowshoes on the whole way to the top, then took them off at the knob and put on microspikes for the way down on the rockier sections where having snowshoes was a bit of a hazard. We passed a group on the way up to the summit, met two parties of two that had already summitted and were on the way down. On our way down some more parties were coming up and passed one party that we had seen up top. It was snowing most of the day, so the views weren't as phenomenal as the pictures I've seen in the past, especially of Spray Lakes. It was a steady -13 most of the day I think." — leigh-annewebster • Jan 27, 2018

"Liz's birthday hike. Big group: 8 humans and a 7 pound dog. Celebratory beers and cake at the summit. Great day, and a nice alternative to EEOR, Ha Ling, etc. Better views, fewer crowds. No snow. " — mike_rogers81 • Jun 4, 2017
