the valley of Mountain Creek and its tributaries; also there is a distinct view of Mt. Sir Sandford so seldom seen.
Grizzly Creek—Name: Probably by a prospector with reference to girzzly bears, which at one time were very plentiful in its valley.
Location: Joins Beaver River from the east, 3Vo miles south of Bear Creek Station. About 3 miles from its mouth the stream forks, the east branch leading to a divide at the head of Canyon Creek, which flows into the Columbia River near Golden. The West Branch leads south-easterly to a divide at the head of the North Branch of the Spillimacheen River. Near the mouth of the creek on the north side, an abandoned miner's trail branches from the Beaver River trail and leads up the creek for 1½ miles, where it crosses by a dilapidated bridge and climbs the mountain slopes to a thousand feet above the valley-bottom : then following the West Branch, crosses the divide and goes down the North Spillimacheen Valley, thus giving access to several mining claims opened up at Copperstain Mt. So long in disuse, this trail can only be found with much difficulty. That portion from the divide down the North Spillimacheen is in the better condition. The route gives access to Bald Mountain.
Hasler Peak—Name: By Messrs. Fay and Parker, after the Swiss guide. Christian Hasler.
Altitude: 11,113 feet.
Location: The most easterly peak of Mt. Dawson.
First Ascent : By Messrs. Fay and Parker with guides C. Hasler and E. Feuz, Sr., in 1899. (For routes, etc., see under Mt. Dawson.)
Hermit Range—Name: In relation to the Hermit on Mt. Tupper.
Altitude: 10..536 feet.
Location: Parallel to the C. P. Railway on the north and west sides, extending from Caribou Creek to Moimtain Creek: lies between Beaver River. Bear Creek, Illecillewaet River. Caribou Creek and Mountain Creek. Also, it is the picturesque mountain range seen from Glacier House looking north. The north end of the Abbott Ridge commands a view of the entire range, except its eastern end which is hidden by the heights of the intervening Mt. Macdonald.
The Hermit Range presents a perfect alpine effect throughout the year. Above the climbing forests, between 30 and 40 glaciers line its crest and separate its individual units. It culminates in Rogers Peak (10,536 feet) of the Rogers massif. From this pivotal point, eight glaciers radiate like spokes of a wheel. Hermit Range dominates Rogers Pass and is one of the most attractive centres for mountain climbing and study in the immediate vicinity of Glacier.
Hermit Mt.—Name: By order in Council. Originally named "Stony Mt." At that time the present Mt. Tupper was known as Hermit Mt., so called with reference to a gendarme resembling a hermit on its western arête.
Altitude: 10,194 feet.
Location: Immediately east of the Rogers massif from which it is separated by a deep notch.
First Ascent: By the Revds. .1. C. Herdman. S. H. Gray and A. M. Gordon in 1904.
Route: Reached from Glacier House in one long day. It is
