Eating supper on a beautiful evening in the middle of a white ocean. What could be better than this?Camping on the Columbia Icefield.Chatting with the other group.It's like being in an oven when there's no wind and sun on the icefield.Mount Columbia starts coming into view.Sunset over South and North Twin Peak.Digging out the floor in our Mega Light. The key with this minimal shelter is to get the floor dug down at least 18 inches.Mount Bryce.Ian is looking forward to supper.Evening settles in around camp.We quickly passed the group at left who turned back from the serac zone and went the other way through the crevasse fields at left.Skinning up the snow coach road on the Athabasca Glacier.Camping on the Columbia Icefield.Other teams were waylaid by our camp and decided to set up next to us throughout the afternoon!Ascending the ramp to the Columbia neve - this is the key terrain feature that makes the Athabasca Glacier approach to the main ice field feasible.Sunset over Columbia, King Edward and the Twins.Sunset on the Columbia Icefields.Sunset on the Columbia Icefields.It's HOT today!Dug out nice and deep!
