Peter on Crown Mountain:
“Seven hikers made their way through Lynn Headwaters and Hanes Valley up to Crown Mountain and then to the Grouse Chalet. Very diverse terrain: forest trails, a creek crossing, boulder fields, steep to very steep parts and a bit of scrambling. High temperatures and humidity made us sweat and many flies and mosquitos kept us from stopping for too long. Great views from the top, no snow, and a bear with a cub from a safe distance. Ten hours of hiking and the rain started only after we arrived at the Chalet.”
