These two photos were taken close together from a ridge along the Citadel Peak Trail. The inset looks back and this looks ahead to Howard Douglas Lake and Citadel Peak, the massive peak in the background on the left side of the photo. Our trail would take us down to the lake (where we replenished our water supply), around the left side of the lake, up over the ridge beyond the lake and then across the valley to Citadel Peak which we would skirt to the left before descending steeply into the valley beyond. At this point we were still in Alberta, but would cross into British Columbia at Citadel. The first camp on the trail is at Howard Douglas Lake but we would still have about 12 km to go and so we hiked on. Mount Assiniboine, our final destination, is visible on the right.
