The approach to the North Fork is long and arduous. We started our approach at the crack of noon...ish
First we had to walk to 1750m to find snow
Up High looks OK
Down low not so much
Donuts helped with nourishment until pizza and beer could be obtained at our objective
The mountain provided donuts as well
The Twin Sisters
Shuksan
We feasted on corn, but this only increased our hunger
We ran into Juya at the bottom of the Roman Wall and convinced her to chow down on the glacier donut.
Some hot slogging finally lead us to our objective
No gnar, just goofing
On Sunday we did the HSCT... super dry. Vancouver is effed for water this summer. Snowpack is 0%.
We ended Sunday at Il Castello in North Van. Pizza and beer double header complete.

Anything Alex posts has my blessing. Same goes for you, Andy.
And that is some really good pizza and decent brew at the North Fork.
