Write Up:
Destination changed to Deception Pass! (Parking at Paradise Valley might have been difficult). The weather was cool but reasonable, especially as we climbed up from the Fish Creek parking lot (SE of the main lodge for Lake Louise Ski resort) where there was plenty of room to park our six cars. A very sociable group of three men and three women started on the winter cross country trail then diverted onto the snow mobile trail before we got to the Halfway Hut and had a snack. Having got to the top of Boulder Pass, we decided unanimously to go towards Deception Pass and went to the top. The sights we rarely see included Ptarmigan and Redoubt Lakes and their mountains, Baker Lake, and the Skoki Valley. The larches had gone past their peak colour but still attractive. Worthwhile hike, 22km and 784 m gain. A good hike with equally good conversations. Glynn Wright.
