Additional Info:
I hiked the first peak of The Chief for sunset while visiting Mikaila a few years ago. Now, I'm in Squamish doing the Chief with Jaimie. We did Wedgemount Lake the day before, and decided to do the 3 peaks of the Chief as our "rest day" between Wedgemount and Cypress. Andrew joined us in Squamish on Friday night to make a sick crew of four!
We went directly to the third peak, which was nice because we beetled off the main Chief trail early on (and it's a Saturday so you KNOW it's busy). We sat at the top for a solid hour, saying our names backwards on a voice recording app, and rewinding it again to play it "correctly"... We then did the quick walk over to the second peak. From there we took a bit of a scramble route up to the first peak and then we were on our way down!
So smoky from Peak 3
When boys are in the way of you and your best friend taking a pic... (Peak 1). Asil, TtenneB, Werdna, and Eimiaj.
