Alouette Mountain and Golden Ears



Alouette Mountain is on the left and Golden Ears is on the right. These are two peaks I took for granted growing up but you can see them from Guildford Mall.



If you go to the upper parking lot by Wal-Mart and look north east just right of the Sheraton and the tall Canadian Flag from Flag Chevrolet they're right there.




The start of the trail was bare but there was over six feet of snow at the top of the trail. Unfortunately we couldn't find a clearing with a view. That made the journey somewhat anti climatic so it did.




There was some older growth trees and lots of cool fungus. I was hoping to get a view of Pitt Lake. Another day perhaps. This was a nice memorial on a picnic table at the first plateau over looking the south end of Alouette Lake by the dam:
