Castle Mountain showing the hut and the route. The Upper
Brewer
Buttress is 1000' feet of sustained , vertical, moderate climbing over
good
rock. An
excellent
route. We went too far north to descend back to Goat
Plateau
and it turned out to be a race to outrun a thunderstorm.
Apparently
an easy mistake to make. The summit plateau is a huge
expanse
of unglaciated terrain.
The hut is perched on a spectacular precipice overlooking the Bow
River
Valley.
The stylish and Frank Gehry-esque outhouse is like "totally
awsome
...dude" and itself well worth the hike in.
