Day 1 Outer Solitaire || Day 2 Middle Solitaire || Day 3 Tom George ||
Day 4 Loft Glacier || Day 5 Pass Peak || Day 6 Telkwa Glacier

Day 2 of our 7 day guided trip to Burnie Glacier Chalet with Tom Wolfe of Sawback Adventures assisted by Sean Fraser of Hyland Backcountry took us to up to Middle Solitaire for a long continuous run and a view to the Telkwa Glacier.

The weather we had for this trip offered us SPECTACULAR views of the surrounding glaciers and peaks. Snow below 1300m was isothermic, but higher up it was still winter. We did have to protect ourselves from the intense sun.

1350m climbing in 6:30hrs.

Getting ready in the morning.
