Description

Abbot's Hut, a stone climbing hut, is a speck in the col between giants on the continental divide in the Canadian Rockies. The scale is difficult to comprehend; it is 2/3 of a vertical mile up the steep scree slope from Lake Oesa to the hut.

Thank you so much, Rona! It was an amazing climb and we stayed overnight in the hut at just under 10,000 ft. Spectacular views!
