I finally ascended Luscar Mountain after 3 failed attempts.
Came back via Hot Rocks Trail. The most tricky part is traverse of the very steep and loose terrain with the mild exposure to reach the ascent slope. No difficulties on the ascent slope but it's spewn with very loose and unstable rock ready to tumble down. Overall difficulty - "Moderate scramble"
