Upper Canyon Creek Peak 394405
Elevation approx. 2600 m
June 12, 1999
Long before I was doing my own trips, I followed Pete Irwin on a number of trips. On this occasion, Pete led Philip, Jackie, Rosie and me up an unnamed peak from the North Fork of Upper Canyon Creek. After leaving the creekbed, we made our way to Bryant Lake. From the lake, we hiked to the col north of our peak before gaining it.
This is one of several unnamed peaks that can be accessed from the North Fork of Upper Canyon Creek. Only the long, stony creek bed approach detracted from our enjoyment of the trip.
Before reaching the lake, we bushwhacked through these trees
Bryant Lake is surprisingly large
From lake, we hiked up the slope seen here. The summit is left. On the right is Peak 396418.
