| Grouse Mountain Vancouver BC This is on the mountain 3000ft above sea level. The "hill" at the back is another 1000ft up. We climbed that also. Notice how thick the rise at the back is with trees. It is wonderful how they grow practically on bare rock some of them. There are two girls to be seen in the picture. Puzzle find them. |

| On Crown Mountain Vancouver July 4th 20 4,500ft above sea level & above the clouds. On the peak of Crown Mountain. Just room to stand. A false step & I should have fell a thousand ft. A strong sun explains why I am frowning |
[no annotation. Joe with snowball] | Vancouver BC July 4th. 4000ft above sea level You can look at this on a hot day. We only got this as the fog was coming. We had to hurry up to the top again |

| On Crown Mountain Vancouver Another one showing a rift in the cloud bank. It was getting very close [taken from the peak of Crown Mountain] |
Castle Mountain Vancouver BC The fog clearing you can just see the remains on the right of the picture. This was taken from the same place so you see how thick it was. The peak showing is Castle Mountain & the rock to the right is shaped just like a square castle. The camera reduces things so much. Everything with the naked eye looked immense |
