Mount Tecumseh Crowsnest Pass July 3, 2019

So the forecast looked like garbage everywhere close so we had to go a little further today, but we picked the right spot as we had a beautiful day.  We had a large group today and it made it enjoyable.  We had about a 4 km approach on a service road then we started our grunt up the mountain.  The first bit was pretty neat going through a dried up canyon then we hit a pretty nasty scree section.  Once we reached the summit ridge it was all worth the effort.  We had a spectacular ridge walk wit Crowsnest mountain looming to the left of us and on the summit we had absolutely no wind.  Usually when there is no wind on top there are bugs but we had neither today which was great.  So the scree slog on the way down wasn't the greatest either.  Aside from the scree slot up and down this was a great day in a very not so traveled area.  According to the register on the top we were the first party this year to summit this mountain.

It was too tough in the Canyon so we had to leave it

7 Sisters and Crowsnest looked awesome, would have been better with no cloud cover though

We tried a different way down to maybe get a better scree, but it was about the same
