The Keyhole 2016-08-17

Six of the Rubble Rousers hiked through the Keyhole today, and onto the Kokanee Glacier. We started by going 5 km. back down the access trail that we had come in on two days earlier, and then up the slope through mine tailings and flowers, and after boulder hopping and snow schlepping, up some rugged and loose rocks and dirt to the actual keyhole. The glacier was an immense stretch of blinding white. We took a side trip up Esmeralda Peak before lunching at the signpost and heading back down. Another fabulous day for weather, views and exertion!
