Looking back down the Lake O'Hara approach road at Mount Bosworth with a fresh coat of white. But it's already MUCH sunnier than the forecast promised so that's good.Even the lower Lake O'Hara trails are slick, icy and snowy today.Crossing the Schaffer Lake outlet stream, looking towards the Odaray Grandview (L), Walter Feuz (C) and Odaray (R).Loads of fresh snow today.Despite the fresh snow, the morning is already beautiful and the larches have retained their needles somehow (usually they fall off with snow).Despite the fresh snow, the morning is already beautiful and the larches have retained their needles somehow (usually they fall off with snow).Looking towards the Odaray Highline.A frozen registration box with warnings and closures marked.A glorious day as I follow tracks up the Highline trail.Schaffer on the left and Park Mountain (which I climbed only a few days earlier - bone dry) on the right as I look back down my approach.More stunning views off the Highline trail with Wiwaxy, Victoria, Huber and Schaffer (L to R) and a million larches showing off their fall coats.Looking back at the trail as I work my way around towards the NE end of Odaray. Schaffer Lake just visible at lower left.No more tracks to follow as I start up the alpine route (note the blue / yellow marker) to the Odaray Grandview.I love trails like this - they cut through difficult terrain in creative ways, shaped and formed over many decades of hiking and climbing in the area.Looking back at my tracks and towards the main Lake O'Hara lakes and peaks. I'm pretty darn happy I ignored the weather forecast for today.Deeper and deeper we go...
