The original plan was to attempt two peaks today, but it took 2.5 hours sitting on the summit of (East) Wasootch Peak (VE6/RA-008, 4 points) to make my 4 QSOs.
If it was not for NS7P (Thanks Phil for the spot) catching me trolling, I might still be there. What was up with 20m and 40m today?
(East) Wasootch Peak 2330m 7644ft requires 1000m (3300ft) of climbing. It is 7 km one-way to the Highest Point.

This ridge walk is very enjoyable once you do the steep first hour, past the first 3 big humps. Nice views even though you are not above the surrounding peaks. Highly recommended.
I did get a wee bitty off route on the down climb which required some 5.6 skills on loose slabs and ledges, Oops.
