Hiking
Kate, Shannon and I hiked Centennial Ridge (Mt. Allan) from Ribbon Creek to Deadmans Flats on Saturday. This a great walk that keeps you above treeline for a long time. The wildflowers were in full bloom and the weather was great. This trail is the next best thing to an easy alpine climb for views. I definitely recommend it.
- 25km, 4310 ft elevation gain
Also notably is the conglomerate along the ridge.
