This weekend we went to Whistler, once again. But this is the first time we went hiking there. We hiked up to Russel Lake via Singing Pass and stayed in the hut. On Sunday we hiked via the three music bumps back to the top of the gondola station and took the gondola down.

Me, having a break on the way up to singing pass.

Having a break close to the top of the pass.

 

nice nature and weather...

 

A marmot, and that was not the only one - perfect in posing!

 

This is Russel lake. You can see the small hut (silver roof) next to the lake. Up to this point we hiked ~1500m altitude.

 

We decided to hike on the top of Mt. Fissile, another 500m of altitude :)

 

Hiking, or better climbing up. I was a little bit scared but we made it!

 

View down...

 

That was the view from the top: overlord glacier!

 

On the way down: It suddenly started to snow (yes, SNOW!). Crazy :)
You can see Russel lake on the right.
