Mount Seymour Carpe Diem



Beautiful snow conditions on the local mountains today. Last Saturday it was like spring. People were stripping down and getting a tan. The trees were bare and there were bare patches in the snow. Today was magnificent. Just enough snow to rejuvenate the magic of winter. Trails were packed but not icy. The snow was great.



I made it up Seymour today. If you think that Mystery peak chair takes you to the top of Mount Seymour you’re wrong. I used to think that. After Mystery peak you have to hike up to a peak called first pump, then right after that is a peak called second pump and after that is a peak called third pump. Third pump is Mount Seymour and the view of the backcountry is magnificent.
