Trip Date: 8-Jul-2010
Activity: Scramble
Destination: Mt Rundle- Main Peak

Report:

An early start combined with the access trail being along sheltered slopes, allowed us to avoid the heat of the day. A steady pace got us to the top which we found to be free of snow. Clear skies gave us great views in all directions - as far as the Bugaboos to the west.

Not many flowers on the dry west facing slopes, but there were some nice clumps of purple saxifrage.
