Mount Cory
Banff National Park, Alberta
June 3, 2001

Mount Cory is a fine scramble, but be sure to get on the correct rib at the base of the mountain. It's easy to go wrong as the trail goes past the ascent rib. We went too far west and started up the wrong rib. We had to drop down, cross a gully and get on the correct rib. I forgot to do a summit panorama, so I took one from along the ridge.
