    Excellent trail with many variables once you reach the alpine. Mt Daniel requires some route finding, scrambling, bug management, and exposure. However the juice is worth the squeeze as it’s nearly a 16 mile round trip and 5000 vertical feet.

    Single overnight at Peggys Pond. Day one we took the NW scramble route up Cathedral Rock (see beta in photos). Day two we summited MT Daniel and then packed out do to heavy smoke from forest fires.

Cathedral Rock & Daniel (9/3/20)
See attached photos for beta on Cathedral Rock. After going up the waterfall, go hard right to the NW ridge and follow that up to the couloir. Do not go straight up the talus field. The way to the right is much easier and not filled with as much loose choss. Either way, this is a class 4 climb. Bring a handline if you’re not comfortable with it.

Took the ridge up but got down on the snowfield too soon. Took the glacier down. Met Steven Gnam at the top who had run up in 2 hours. Pretty day but lots of clouds coming in from the west and burning off.
