Trip
Alpine Scramble - Wahpenayo Peak
A perfect summer trip plus a great workout at ~15 miles and ~5000’. This gorgeous traverse spans a huge variety of multicolored terrain (meadows, summits, tarns/lakes, waterfalls, river crossings), with the Wonderland Trail gently escorting us back to the cars at the end of a long day.
