BETA PHOTO: Joffre Peak from the Cerise Creek approach.


Description 

A big, attractive mountain with many routes. The easiest "scramble" requires a small amount of glacier travel. Some snow climbing, lots of loose third class rock, and a bit of fourth class rock. Other routes can have much steeper snow and fifth class rock.


Getting There 

There is a well-marked trail from the Keith Flavelle hut that takes you up to an alpine bench at the start of several of the easiest routes on the peak.

Alternatively, if you are doing it car-to-car, you can avoid the hut by taking the trail marked "Glacier" rather than "Hut" on the hike in from the Cerise Creek parking.
