Mount Fable
Kananaskis, Alberta
May 2, 2001
The 4.8 km approach up Exshaw Creek seemed long, but the views on Mount Fable are well worth it. We happened to climb it when there was a forest fire raging in the north, giving us surrealistic scenes but poor visibility. On the other hand, we enjoyed warm temperatures, even on the summit.
After leaving Exshaw Creek to start up the drainage, Dinah Kruze, Anita Jelinski,
and Kari Haas stop for water

On the return, the downclimbs slowed us down
We passed a small waterfall on the descent
