Aster Lake (Kananaskis), 2004

   

  Going around Hidden lake is quite a pain, as there is no benefit of a trail  

  A sample obstacle  

  At least it's not raining anymore Working hard to make it through the trees There is a little guy on the rock if you look close  

  Ryan slaving up the hill Fossil falls Yay... more scree  

  Note the trees smashed from avalanches in the valley  

  Making progress up the scree... the view is amazing  

   

   

  funky fossils  

   

  this is pretty steep, the picture does no justice  

  and suddenly, a different setting!  

  very close to the campground
