North Wapta

Wow, what an outstanding 3 days out on the Wapta in the cold temperatures and crystal clear skies! Niall, Marc, Jeff and I went up to Peyto Hut and over to Bow with a couple of nice peaks along the way. We had a great time all in all with highlights being Chic Scott singing aloud to everyone in the hut, no wind and endless views on top of St. Nicholas peak, drinking some nice coffee's in the hut with friends and each of us having a body part to complain about while it freezes. 
Marc on the final 20m hike to the summit of St. Nic in splitter weather.
Endless views in the -40 weather + Windchill.
