The elevation change is attractive. It looks as if there is less rubble on this than Mt Fryatt. Fine picture of Mt. Fryatt too.

Thanks Desainme. As I am sure you are aware Canadian Rockies rock is substandard to begin with and I would have to rate the Fryatt Valley climbs below average on top of that. Mickey is as loose as Fryatt I suppose. That mountain goat was making a mess as he ascended, thus we waited until he was well off the route. Decent limestone in the Banff area and quartzite in Jasper, but not a lot of positive rock in between. Cheers!
