Jone's Cabint's basic, but it works pretty well. And even though they won't make me a gear ambassador, I'll plug once again for the Hyperlite Mountain Gear UltaMid shelter.t's basic, but it works pretty well. And even though they won't make me a gear ambassador, I'll plug once again for the Hyperlite Mountain Gear UltaMid shelter.The Hind hut is an awesome way to spend the night before a climb - especially on the third weekend in September when it's completely empty!An ideal bivy site. Golden's north end at left and Assiniboine just showing up at distant center.A great view of Fatigue Pass with Golden Mountain's north end and our bivy.There are worse ways to spend a Friday afternoon.Fatigue Pass.Looking past the main cabin to the extremely rustic second one and further up valley towards Nestor Peak. This is the valley we're going to use to tackle Simpson Ridge and Peak.The main cabin with the ridge we used to access Nestor Peak rising beyond and Golden Mountain at distant left.The cabin with Nestor Peak in the distance.Finally at camp. Setting up in the dark.Four hours later we're finally at our bivy. None of us can believe we made it by dark.Our beautiful valley includes (l to r) Bryce, Rice Brook Peak, Coral Peak, Queen's Peak and Mount Alexandra.The Baker Lake campground.We even brought a lamp along so we could play cards at night. I don't lug this heavy gear around anymore.The Peyto Hut.Relaxing with the boots off in warm sunshine. Perfect.A very well-deserved break at camp!A great place to call home for a night! Looking over the pass to Coleman and Coleman NE2 from our bivy.
