"Faceted snow on the summit ridge made the crux quite spooky even with a couple pieces of protection. The ski down was quite awesome though, will have to try again! Frustrating considering you can see over the summit from one bump before. " — ken_hercules • Mar 24, 2023
"Mt Habel - July 20 2019. We headed up to Peyto hut for the night with the goal of doing Mt Habel before sunset. We had to take our boots off to cross the river, couldn't find a spot shallow enough otherwise. I'd recommend bringing shoes for the crossing and get it over with before you head up the canyon, then switch to boots. To gain the glacier there's this nasty mud that will swallow your boots, beware! then it's bare ice up the Peyto glacier until you turn the corner towards the hut. There was fresh snow from Friday's storm covering most of the glacier above ~2400m. This made navigating crevasses a bit tricky since there was a lot less visual cues than there would have been a few days ago. Bridges were not very supportive during the day, and we put our feet in a few times. There was about 10cm of fresh snow between the hut and Mt Habel, and we did have trouble in spots with crevasses due to the fresh snow hiding them, and the poor support on bridges. We probed a lot, and lost our feet a few more times. Travel on the snow was mostly good - ankle deep with a few spots getting to boot deep, pretty minimal post holing in a few places. Things improved right below Mt Habel and we had ..." — jakefinnan • Jul 20, 2019
"Awesome peakbagging weekend out of peyto hut. Decent travel conditions aside from some tricky crevasse navigation low on the Wapta Icefield. We were able to climb and descend the crux on Habel with no rope because of great snow conditions. Caldron was a slog with a lot of up and down in the sun!" — BobbyG • Jul 20, 2019
"Made a full day by ascending Habel after a trip up Mt Rhondda. Stuck to bare ice as much as possible ascending the bowl, and navigated through the crevasse field below on the way back to Peyto Hut. The notch at the end is loose and we witnessed a lot of rockfall. Smoky day." — daveataylor1 • Aug 18, 2018
