Phillipps Peak

"Not quite technically a summit - stayed about 30 meters back because of a dangerous looking cornice. On my route down, I saw an avalanche from one of the cornices letting go. I approached from the BC side, and went up the ridge straight north of Phillipps Lake, along the BC/Alberta border. Then descended along the route into the bowl and used the common route to exit. I found mountain goat tracks way up on the highest ridge - genuinely impressed " — AaronKauffman48 • Jun 3, 2022

"we went up to Phillipps peak's false summit to measure the position of a border marker placed in 1922, with a high-precision GPS unit/ While in the neighbourhood, we climbed Phillipps Peak, came down the ridge to find a narrow ramp traverse in to the bowl below Mt Tecumseh, which we then climbed. We finished by coming out via the canyon normal route to Tecumseh. A long day, with 3 spot that I would consider difficult scrambling." — apfelstrudel • Sep 19, 2020

"Bike and Hike. Climbed South ridge of phillips peak which had some moderate scrambling along it till the summit ridge which was exposed but solid enough. Descended to the scree ramp on the SE ridge and gained the normal ascent route for Tecumseh. " — ken_hercules • Jul 8, 2020

"It was hot. +32C at the valley. I biked the approach road (along gas right of way) to where one starts up from Tecumseh. Locked up the bike there and went up as for Tecumseh. Upon reaching the bowl botttom, I turned left and gained the ridge. Gaining the ridge and the ridge was moderate scrambling and the small notch was on the easier side of difficult scrambling. Took a scree gully for the way down, which had tedious scree. At the end of the gully there was avi debris (trees) and lots of vegetation, sop some bushwhacking was required, but no significant obstacles. Biked back out (mostly downhill)." — BertB • Jul 8, 2017
