That face (North face) has one of the longest bolted climbs in North America. Over 500m and 21 pitches!

I disagree on that… I did the Annapurna circuit back in 2014 and I’ve done part of the 3 passes and the EBC twice now since then. I found the people through the Khumbu more friendly, the scenery and trekking more awesome and the lack of roads a winner. The AC has too many roads and vehicles for enjoyable walking. I’d like to do the Manaslu circuit if I could, and it looks like Mustang would be really cool, although much more desolate. I loved Nepal. I’d like to go back but I’m into my 60s now and it’s a massive challenge. We are lucky to have been and seen it, my friend.

You are right. I was highly disappointed when I arrived at EBC, and Ama Dablam is significantly better than EBC.

My guide told me Annapurna Circuit and Mustang Valley are better than the EBC trek.

One day we will!

Beautiful

Dammmmmn

Simply gorgeous! BC is incredibly beautiful.

This looks like an amazing painting. Unreal.

The peak you refer to is part of Nuptse, which forms a ridge all the way along to Lhotse, which itself joins the main peak of Everest through a ridge. Everest is visible here, the small peak just showing left of centre in the gap between the two closer peaks.

lol this area is so hard to get to concealing it is kind of pointless. I hope to spend a few nights here next summer though!

Nice! Its a great view

This is nowhere near there

It's extremely remote. I wouldn't worry

It's 30km off the beaten path along the bc side of rockies after taking a 70km dirt logging road. Its a delicate area so I unfortunately won't be sharing the info myself, but with some googling I am certain you'll come across it. Happy hunting!

The large mountain to the right of center is not Everest. Everest is further up the valley to the left and around the corner.

Where exactly is this?

My favourite place on earth right here. Really want to scramble that central peak one day!

Tons of amazing hikes along the Sea To Sky between Vancouver and Whistler. Heads up, some provincial parks require you to have a day pass that you have to pre reserve (at like 7am PST) a month or two in advance in order to park and hike the trail. It's become wild; for example Garibaldi Provincial Park or some Cypress trails. Check out BC Parks website for more info.

Enjoy!

Looks like the stairway to the heaven

Beautiful! I'm headed there in August- any highlights? Will be in Van, Squamish and Whistler.

From Porcupine Rim you're looking down 1300' to head of Castle Valley, and up over 5000' to the top of the La Sal range. There's no where in the east with that kind of "verticality" view. I'll admit a landscape or panorama shot from here would have been much more inclusive of the incredible change in geography and geology, with Alpine mountains in front of you and deserts, mesas, buttes and a major river canyon around to your left. Driving the La Sal mountain loop road from Moab is one incredible geographic journey.
