Description:

Cirque peak from the place glacier approach; a very difficult approach according to the scrambles book. If possible I would like to leave vancouver as early as possible friday night, drive to trailhead in three hours and then hike in mostly in the dark - if there is an overwhelming majority prefering a saturday hike in that is fine.

Also some time to be spent exploring place glacier so g1 is required. I am not qualified to take responsibility for your safety so make your own decisions on this trip
