A lesson learned from last week's hike. Need snowshoe or ski in winter. So I bought snowshoe.

Grizzly Col, where the trail ends. Mountain on the right is Mt. Tyrwhitt. This mountain has a window just like Window Mountain in Crowsnest Pass.

I tried to get up to Highwood Ridge and then walk on the ridge, but I chickened out and decided to go back to the trail and followed it.

Looking at the Pocaterra Ridge. Perhaps in summer I can try Mt Tywhitt and Pocaterra Ridge at the same day. Even better If I can fit Highwood ridge as well.

It's rare to have such a nice day in winter. Usually it snowing or flurries that I don't get much visibility in mountain.
