British Columbia

Sittakanay Peak (2415m) was chosen as the objective of this team, as according to the Canadian Mountain Encyclopaedia it was unclimbed. This team felt that the most promising route would be via the SE Ridge, although there are several other possibilities. Unfortunately, the Juneau region experienced the worst summer weather in years, with high winds and rainfall records for August being broken, resulting in widespread flooding. Although they had little chance to venture very high, they managed to carry out a thorough reconnaissance of the area, taking plenty of digital images which will prove invaluable to future visitors.
