3 hours drive from home!


"On a hippie trail thats full of Zombies". Not really, but the Anniversary Glacier is in between the two peaks that you see in front.

Mt Matier on the left and Mt Joffre on the right with the glacier in between. Our camp spot is on top the hump down from Matier`s right shoulder.


Looking at the North face of Joffre in what appears to be a forrested clearing. It is actually a clearing created by a 1/100 year avalanche. If you look closely you can see the tops of the young trees on an angle away from the mountain.

After 5 hours we reach the moraines where we look South up the glacier. Matier on the left and Joffre just out off view on the right. The rocks on the Col (a sholder between two mountains) at the top centre, is where we hiked and turned arround.
