Kirsten has bad feet and maybe the load on her or the quick sudden move she did trying not to fall in a river made her foot hurt. So she taped a flat rock on her heel to help the pain. Also pay attention to her socks, she's actually wearing white plastic bag because her socks and boots got wet falling into a river. She used everything she can use to deal with her situation. She's like The A-Team!!
So for the 3rd day, we moved camp site to Window Mountain Lake.

The last day, we went up the Mount Ward, but Kirsten decided to stay low considering her bad feet. When I took this picture, she was trying to fly a kite.
At the col where you can take left to Mount Ward or right to Allison Peak. Crowsnest Mountain and Window Mountain.
This is as far as I went that day at the unnamed peak. Allison Peak on the left and I have to bring the crazy UK guy here since he loves ridge scramble. Pretty view for sure.
I was supposed to meet up Kirsten where we separated, but I totally checked on wrong place and I thought "Huh, it's windy so she maybe got cold and whet back to tent." Every time this happened in the past, ended up meeting at the start point instead. So I went all the way down and checked the camp site and she wasn't there... I walked the lake and hiked up again to find her at the place we separated. Hahahaaaa extra extra. Didn't I have GPS?
