Report:

We had excellent weekend in Redstreak CG. Weather was not great but we did our best and most importantly we had a lot of fun. Thursday we hiked Pedley Ridge /9 km,730 m el.gain/.
Friday we did Mt.Swansee loop and Toby Bridge Historical Trail. This was unfinished bussiness for Bob and myself /i am done with it, hope Bob too and Dave M. must deal with it by himself/. 26 km, 990 m el.gain/.
Saturday was Jumbo Pass day with challenging drive in and lot of snow still there, so we have another unfinished bussiness /Bastille Mt./9km, 640 m el.gain/. After hike visit Panorama Resort and Toby Creek Bridge again this time from north /Dave this is much easier than from south and i will not consider it cheating but check with Bob for case/.
Sunday- Mt.Pinto beautifull meadows but brutal condition with very limited visibility, slippery grass and rock, snowing on top. Everyone survived and we'll be back!9 km,990m el.gain.

Thanks everyone for active participation. Bernie joined us for two days and Gilles for one. Bob, Janet, Sim, Jeanette, Janice, Yoko, Rick, Robert, John, IVAN.
