Note the U-shaped, glacier-carved Chiwawa river valley, and the pitiful remnant of that glacier.<br /> We were just above the clouds, one of the most thrilling mountaineering views. We'd climbed through gloomy fog on a compass bearing to get here.<br /> There were some steep, not-corgi-friendly sections with loose rock near the top -- no place for a dog, really -- but most of it was fairly easy.<br /> <br /> NOTE: you cannot do stuff like this with other people around, because dogs are stupid about rockfall, on both the initiating and receiving ends. They'll kick rocks loose, and if rockfall comes tumbling towards them, they'll think it's a tennis ball! DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME.
