Bow Hut
20-21 June 2004
Moderate hike to the ACC hut and some easy scrambling on the Onion with Hank, Erin and Paul.
As we were having coffee at NumTiJah Lodge before starting our hike the weather was tentative. There was drizzle on and off until we were halfway up the second canyon. Luckily it didn't get any heavier and then dissipated for the remainder of out trip. After unpacking at the hut Hank, Erin and I decided to go scramble up the Onion while Paul stayed at the hut and rested. We told Paul we'd be back for dinner at 6:00. We hadn't reached the top of the Onion by 6:30 so we decided to turn around and head back to the hut. Paul was maaaaaaaaaad. He had believed us when we said 6:00 and cooked the chicken. I think we were forgiven by the next day. Maybe.
I love going up to Bow Hut. The feeling you get when you turn the corner into that second canyon and the view headwall with the Wapta overhanging opens up is fantastic. Also, Bow Hut has the best deck location I've ever had the pleasure of seeing.
